My favourite pics and places from 2006

I love love LOVE taking photos, as any of my friends and family will testify to... and these are some of my favourite pics of places and beautiful things in 2006 (actually, the Venice ones are from Nov 2005, but they snuck in there). I have many great ones of friends and family too, but today I just wanted to remind myself of how many beuatiful places there are in the world.
