Of Wishes

Of travel I dream of where to go heart and mind do wander so 

Of cobbled streets and winding roads and getting lost I love to do 

Of exploring high and low and finding hidden gems of street bars and cafes to watch the people come and go

Of evenings golden glow bouncing of ancient stones I  hark back to fond times of travel as I knew it

Of a promise I make to my feet you will roam again 

Of a promise to special friends we will will tea and spa again

Windows On The World

Windows on the world are many at the minute although you can not travel by air plane train as you’re restricted to what is available to you on foot and I’m really lucky to live near stunning countryside and woodland. So when I needed to get my prescription the other day I decided to take the very long way round to get it ! If you look through the photos you will see how enchanting the area in which I live is. I live for travel as as a rule I enjoy going to far-flung places and those nearer to home and as you might expect this has clipped my wings .


I have been getting my travel fix through the television with such programs as Sir Tony Robinsons round the world by train and Race Across The world ( these are certainly 2 must see programs in recent times )

I have never taken the world for granted and I love it every time I step out the house to have the freedom I do ( though now it is once a day ) 

There is inspiration everywhere I look and I love my photography as does Mr T and we are sad that we've had to cancel our holiday to Corfu , I have had to cancel my spa trip with my good friend Jane , Mr T has had to cancel his pre birthday trip that he was going to go on while I was at the Sap because Mr T does not like Spas in the slightest it really is his idea of hell.Also our afternoon tea at Bettys for my husbands birthday was also cancel and it is the big 50 birthday as well.

So for now it is armchair travels mainly with my eyes firmly on the windows on the world and there is certainly no harm in dreaming as dreaming doesn't cost anything at all .
