Patrick's Photos from Around the World

Pictures of India

The Gateway of India in one of my favorite places Bombay (Mumbai).

Near Mother Teresa's Home for the Destitute and Dying in Calcutta (Kolkata).

Mother Teresa's Home for the Dying and Destitute in Calcutta.

My neighborhood in Bombay.  I loved it.

The Colaba neighborhood in Mumbai.  Great place to read the novel Shantaram...one of my favorites.

Near the Colaba slum in Mumbai.

The amazing youth of the India Church of God.  Best worship service ever!  Hands down.  India!

Pictures of Vietnam

Floating down the river in Saigon.

Apocalypse Now.  "The horror...the horror."

The tunnels the Vietcong hid in were incredibly small.  Compare the entrance to this one with my foot.  Unbelievable.

Me heading into the tunnel.

Hot and muggy in Vietnam, but still not as bad as Hong Kong.

The Cao Dai Temple in  Tai Nihn where they worship Confucius, Jesus, Lao Tzu, Muhammed, Buddha, and Victor Hugo.

Cao Dai.

A mountain where the Viet Cong and the U.S. troops faced off during the Vietnam War.

Pictures of Singapore

Singapore.  I call it the Miami of Asia.  Same look, same climate--switch the Cubans and Dominicans for Indians and Chinese and you've got Singapore.  I love the skyline.

The famous Sentosa Lion.

I love hanging out at Boat Quay.

I like Clark Quay too, but Boat Quay is my usual hang out place.

You know you are downtown when you see this.

I love the Miami like colors of a lot of Singapore.  And I love the boulevards with the excess foliage which is there to make this tiny island nation/city seem like it has a bit of nature left.

The giant durian fruit.

Pictures of New Zealand

Jamie and Marco at a beach in Auckland.

A river on the North Island.

The Remarkables in Queenstown, NZ.

Jamie looking beautiful with Marco.

Marco in Queenstown, New Zealand at one of the sights where they filmed Lord of the Rings.

Ridiculously green in one of the world's most beautiful and relaxing countries.

One of the coolest places I've ever been.  Wild animals on the loose overlooking Queenstown.

Milford Sound on the clearest day of the year.  We were extremely lucky.

Look at that waterfall in the middle.  These mountains are about 5,000 feet straight up.  Amazing!

A nice rainbow in the cliff's waterfall.

Look at how dwarfed that boat is in the middle.  These mountains are huge.

My two babies.

Me in New Zealand.

New Zealand.  You have to see it to believe it.

It timed out that one of Marco's good friends Taylor (and our friends Paul and Esther from Hong Kong) were in New Zealand vacationing at the same time.  Fun!

The Green waters of Wanaka.
