History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

It's A Small World

A few days before their wedding, Alex Voutsinas and his fiancee Donna were looking through her family's pictures from her childhood days. Alex was holding a picture taken at Disney World in which Donna, then 5 years old, was posing with her two brothers and a Disney character. To the left in the background, he then noticed a man resembling his father, pushing a stroller with  him in it. As it turned out, they in fact had crossed paths 20 years before they ever met.

Donna met Alex through work and not realizing their incredible coincidence, they fell in love and eventually married. What makes this even more unbelievable is that they both lived in different countries at the time; he in Canada, and her in Florida. Now, after 8 years together with 3 children, they  decided to share their story.
