Every day is an adventure – 53/365
Now that was an adventure! An adventure from a while ago I'll admit, but oh what an adventure it was! If you know anything about me (It's all about me) I hate heights, edges and being out of control basically. Can you see me gripping onto the rail in front of me despite being connected, I …
One Word Photo Challenge: Humid
It is definitely not humid here at the moment but I wish it was!! It's been freezing cold lately, but then I suppose that it is the middle of winter and I can't expect too much! This is a photo of The Water Palace in Jaipur (India). We were lucky enough to visit a few …

Every day is an adventure – Day 50/365
I'm still standing - today's adventure This tree may look dead but I'm not too sure. It's still standing which in my book means that it's resilient if nothing else. I'd like to think that I too can be resilient. I have made it to 50 days in my Every Day series, so that says something …
Running and blogging over the age of 50 – a rare combination?

Come closer!
As it's a wet, miserable wintery Sunday outside, I am doing lots of fun things inside today. So far I've been reading, listening to music, drinking cups of tea, catching up on blogs, rearranging the clothes on the inside airers and making lots of lists of things I need to do. I have movies planned …
Every day is an adventure – Day 49/365
This is my adventure shot for the day because every adventure should start with shiny red shoes! A little friend turned 2 recently and her birthday party was a fun event with fairy bread, chocolate crackles, cake, pass the parcel and balloons....and lots of little people. I spotted these little shiny red shoes and fell in love with them. …
Droplets of Dew – closeup!
I do enjoy getting closeup photos but I can't always photograph them the way I want to, especially as I take my photos on my iPhone. My sister and her husband take the most amazing macro photos! Then one day recently I was experimenting and managed to take this gorgeous shot of dew drops …

Yellow and fluffy Soft and pretty Golden delights in the green of the Australian bush. Wattle - the floral emblem that makes some people sneeze!
