ABC Wednesday H is for Hotel
It is ABC Wednesday hosted by Denise. This is the Flamingo hotel's entrance from the garden which is lovely. Very 1940's in my mind. Hope you have a minute to stop and visit ABC around the world.
Highly relevant H - it looks like nice place to stay.
PS Concerning tripods and hotels: While in Oslo I bought something called a Gorillapod Focus. It is a small flexible tripod that can be fastened to anything anywhere. I used it to take this picture from my room at the hospital's hotel early Monday morning.
Of course, perfect timing for the letter H! My daughter has raved about the Bellagio (but she hasn't stayed there)--isn't that the hotel with the fantastic fountains?
Perfect choice for the letter H. The Flamingo has a pretty good buffet and a chance to see the flamingos.
ReplyDeleteNice one!

It does have an older look to it. Is it a newer building designed that way?
ReplyDeleteThe entrance makes me want to walk in to see what's inside. ;-)

ReplyDeleteNice shot, makes you want to walk right up those steps...love the color co-ordinated handrails and trash can LOL
ReplyDeleteIt does looks 1940's! I'd like to be there. At the hotel, that is, not the 1940's!
ReplyDeletewhat a cool shot of this very cool hotel. I love the huge planter in front.
ReplyDeletelike the wide entrance
ReplyDeleteI personally can't get enough of the look of that era--this is a great choice for H.
ReplyDeleteCheers from Minnesota!
Lovely! I like the shapes of the railings, set against the curves of the steps.
