Desert honeymoon

Flora Douville took this photos in the Sahara Desert — part of her honeymoon — and posted many more on her pretty blog. I'm such a city, or seaside, person, that I've never quite gotten the appeal of the desert as a vacation destination, but Flora's photos are so luminous that they almost convert me.

More here, here and here.

Wow, what an amazing honeymoon!!! I've always wanted to see the desert, not being much of a seaside person, myself. Good thing I lived in Hawaii and SF for 8 years...

I want to go! Imagine what the nights would be like - all the stars and silence...

But afterwards, wouldn't you want to see the ocean - or a green forest? Or Paris and its gray architecture? And maybe something red - like the brick buildings in Beacon hill.
