Playing with my camera

I finally got to play with my Camera, I'm not as good at most as I'm a little slack in taking it with me and remembering the F', exposures. lighting etc...



I spotted this model in the making practicing his cat walk moves

Then I spotted my future dog, a Goodle. Golden Retriever crossed with a poodle
A friend of Moodle, Spoodle and Noodle.
Oh so soft and he kept following me around, I'm sure that was a good sign that I should get one.

Avon Fun Run

Traditionally it is called the Avon Descent, but this year the poor paddlers had to do a lot of running.

Fun to watch though
And even the early moring wake up was worth it when seeing the sun rise and the hot air balloons in the distance.

travel friends

Some of my 'now' favorite sites over the last few weeks have defiantly helped me with my travel plans.
What did we ever do with out Trip advisor?
We had our trusty Lonely planet, and we  took the risk and arrived at the destination and hoped for a place with a decent bed and shower. It does take the fun out of finding a place,
but the best stress relief when you know what to look forward.

And training it any where around the world? Thanks Man in Seat61
Forget a Euro pass, this is the best site for cheap train ticket Bahn.com, you can book online and even print your ticket out, pity I'm a bit rusty on the old' German to read the ticket.

And there is even a site to tell you the best seat to site on the plane,
I'm always on the look out for extra leg room.

THanks Mr Internet for all your help... now to count down the days.
