Flashback Friday Travel Photo Memories – 4 – Lake Garda

Flashback Friday Travel Photo Memories – 4 – Lake Garda

Lake Garda is something of a Mecca for sailors – every class wants a regatta here to see what it is all about.  We’ve now been twice – probably enough sailing in my book, but I’d love to go back for a holiday (in fact there is an SLH property in a stunning…

Flashback Friday Travel Photo Memories – 3 – South Africa

Flashback Friday Travel Photo Memories – 3 – South Africa

This picture always makes me sigh happily!  What bliss!  We drove straight to this spot from the airport, got changed into summer clothes by the side of the road and headed straight for a paddle – with a view of Table Mountain and a view across to Robben Island the view really is…

#project365 – July

#project365 – July

July was a quiet month – unfortunate to have 3 weeks off work at home not able to do much.  At least this little project forced me to find something to photograph every day despite doing incredibly little!  Unsurprisingly – given my limited options and due to fabulous weather in the UK, much of…

I thought I might try something new on here!  When I’m bored I love looking through old photos and remembering a day out or a holiday trip!  So here goes – my new weekly (as work permits) addition to #FlashbackFriday! Anyone that knows me would agree that I’m not the bravest… hence why…

Month 6 – #project365 – June

Month 6 – #project365 – June

When I started this ‘little’ project 6 months ago I don’t think I actually thought I would see it through, but somehow I have managed to a) get through 6 months complete and b) take a photo of something vaguely interesting every day! And so to June – naively at the start of…

Favourite travel photo(s)

If ever I have any time to myself then I love looking through photos from our trips or weekend activities.  ‘Let your memory be your travel bag’ said someone once, it’s one of many such travel quotes that pops up on instagram frequently and I totally agree, that is why we take photos…

Project 365 – work dominated May!

Project 365 – work dominated May!

May is not one of those months when I fit much in around work… Although looking back now I fitted in a bit, although I feel like perhaps I shouldn’t have now!  The last few days of May post sign-off have been heavy on early nights and getting up that little bit later…

#Project365 – a quarter of the way through the #photograph year!

#Project365 – a quarter of the way through the #photograph year!

January and February went by so fast, it’s hard to believe that it is April tomorrow – so 1/4 of the way through 2014 already!  How did that happen!  The best bit of this however is that the UK is warming up, and April brings us a mini-break to Venice for our wedding…

The #project365 challenge continues – here’s February!

The #project365 challenge continues – here’s February!

Happily I have now managed 2 months!  Month 2 was easier so I’m going to carry on!!  February (you can see all the photos at the link) included 8 days in the desert which was certainly more interesting than a month in the office… A month that starts the way February did is probably a suggestion…

Project 365 – January was harder than I thought #sundaytraveler

And I don’t just mean work wise!! I take lots of pictures, the iPhone is always somewhere near to me to capture all the fun and excitement of the year!  So how about ‘Project 365’… I’ve seen lots of people doing this before – taking a photo on every day of a year.  I…

Favourite photos from 2013

This weeks #frifotos got me thinking about what are my favourite pictures from 2013…  I found a few on Friday to share: But they were just the ones to hand on my iPhone!  I’ve looked back through each trip we took this year to find some favourites… Jamaica was a good start to…
