Hello everyone! This is and I'll present today's edition of Travel Digest. In our featured posts, we have the town of Cordova in Alaska, USA, a drone view of the castle of Sesimbra, Portugal, and a church in Vienna, Austria. Enjoy and keep on pinning your travel posts to the map!
Cordova, Alaska is a town that is off the beaten path. Way off. There are no roads that connect it to the rest of Alaska. Many of the 2,400 folks that live here like it that way. But that means there are only two way to get here; by little plane (either landing on the lake or a small airstrip known as Mudhole Airport), or by boat. We are cruising in Prince William Sound this week aboard the expedition ship Safari Explorer, so this was our ticket to one of the most remote coastal towns here.

Greetings, friends! Thanks for joining me for another post. Today we visited Sesimbra, and I wanted to take advantage of the warm, pleasant day to escape the daily grind with my partner and daughter, and get some drone footage from the Castle, which is one of the highest points in the area at over 200 meters. It's not one of the tallest, nor the most beautiful... but I think it rivals the greats because it boasts the best mountain scenery in the background.📍🏞️

St. Charles’ Church in Vienna, also known as the Karlskirche. If you enjoy churches, Baroque architecture, or architecture in general, you simply must visit this spot in Vienna. At the very least, take a look at this magnificent building from the outside. Unfortunately, there is an admission fee to tour the interior (9.5 euros per adult), which may not suit everyone. The ticket price includes access to the observation deck, where you can admire the surrounding views.
Due to limited time and the large number of places I wanted to see in Vienna, I limited myself to admiring it from the outside. So I didn’t see the interior in person, but in other people’s photos, the interior looks beautiful.
