Wow, a secret third vacation photo set. On Sunday night I discovered that it was May long, so I spent the day wandering the city and taking photos. Then I took a little while to sort through these so enjoy some bonus post-vacation photos too. Some heads up on these photos: there is a pair of photos of a giant water bug and let me tell you, that name is apt. Immediately after you'll get to see a gaggle of goslings so just push through if you don't want to see big ol' bug. Also, I saw some Cliff Swallows and I'm including photos because they're cool even if the quality of the photos is... subpar. Enjoy
