I loved these llamas peacefully grazing among the ruins of Pumapungo ("the door of the puma" in Quechua), a city laid by the Incas centuries ago. This place, that was compared to the empire capital, Cusco, was the northern border of the Inca territory. It is in current day Cuenca, Ecuador.

I love this old gas station. It makes me dream of the day when all gas stations look like this!

(I also like it because I have often romanticized about owning that cliche gas station on a lonely desert road in the middle of nowhere. You've seen it in the movies, the gas station with the old guy in a rocking chair, the '50s style Coke machine, and the big dog you have to step over to go inside.)

Culross Abbey: Mellor

If only Gandalf knew about punctuation. 'Speak "friend" and enter", indeed.
Around the north end of Culross Abbey I found this pair of archways, the light in the distance catching the stonework in a pleasing contrasty way. Something about the shape of the foreground arch reminded me of Lord of the Rings.
