Every time we travel this route to go skiing, it’s at this point we alway say wow we’re finally in the alps.
Amazing change in scenery from entering/exiting the tunnel.

Not Moho related but after viewing the book of Kells went upstairs to the university library. No idea why but was struck motionless and in tears at the view of thousands of books on handmade shelves.
Also the beach at Benodet when the water in the evening was luminescent .

Among so many memories of my road trip in Western USA in 2010, this is one place that really "wowed" me. Crater Lake in Oregon, the deepest, bluest, clearest water I think I've seen and this was just one of the views from the road that goes all around the rim. Fond memories of the whole 6 month trip!

I haven’t got pictures to hand (they’re on an old PC) but my trip to the motorcycling Mecca which is Sturgis in South Dakota in 2006 blew my mind. The most memorable was coming through one of the tunnels on the needles highway which if you stopjust before it and look through you have Mount Rushmore in the exit, it’s like a big picture frame! Others include Crazyhorse, Badlands, Yellowstone, Cody, Devils tower, Spearfish Canyon and my favourite place in the whole world Deadwood.

Check Point Charlie in West Berlin in 1974.
Way back in 1984 when we travelled through Germany then turned left to cross the Swiss Border. The sight before us is forever planted in my mind.

We found it after a long journey over mont dore on our first trip to France and parked the van and i got on the bike to go see the town, returning immediately to tell her that she wont believe what i just saw.
Turning the corner up near Nantua we found the memorial to resistance on the main road.
Sunset and sunrise on the top of Ventoux, but wife preferred a sunset at Montpeyroux over the volcanoes

For the last twenty plus years I have always had a 'Wow' moment everytime when I walk(only access except by sea) across the ridge and look down at my favourite beach in Greece, and the world.
It is a 400m strip of golden sand backed by Tamarisk trees and with a small family taverna set in the sand, tucked against the rocks. It is jut a jewel.
The sun sets into the sea and all is well with the world.

That was in a 4x4 car ... not taken the MH on the Bealach and don’t plan to. We’re heading to Applecross for lunch on Sunday but will take the coast road both directions.
