Didn't know where to put this so I'll plop it here. These are a few of the sites I have bookmarked. Some may enjoy so figured I might share.

Atlas Obscura - Curious and Wondrous Travel Destinations
Neat site for armchair travelers. 'The definitive guide to the world’s hidden wonders!' Tons of excellent photography and informative, interesting text.

Amusing Planet - Amazing Places, Wonderful People, Weird Stuff
Countries, natural wonders, historical oddities, art...etc.
Once again, lots of great photos and info. A lot of fun to dig through.

Rare Historical Photos - And the story behind them...
What it says...but with stories and info on each one. It's about time someone began fleshing out our past like this. May interest some.
