A World Wonder


A view of the Grand Canyon. I sat here with my mum when we visited this wonder of the world during our exciting trip to Las Vegas. Wow!!!    Posted by Suzy Bath.

Parliament Hill 2.


From this famous bench you're afforded views over the skyline of London. It's appeared in countless movies. Often the lover's meet here or the spies or the villains or whichever protagonists are performing that day.

Parliament Hill 1.

From Parliament Hill looking towards Highgate Village and beyond. Sat here on my own too many times. Funny to see one of Chris and Clio's Cairn Terriers sniffing around.

Colonia Sant Pere


We were married in Arta. The following day we travelled to Colonia Sant Pere. It was a gloriously sunny  November day. We sat and enjoyed this view across the Bay of Alcudia to the Sierra Tramuntana mountains in the distance and marvelled at the idea of being together here in Mallorca. The mountains are hidden in the haze, but the memory is crystal clear.

Vicari Joaquim Fuster


There's miles and miles of pedestrian walkway along here in the Portitxol district of Palma Mallorca, with expansive sea views all the way. We found the area altogether charming, imagined winning the lottery and buying one of these original fisherman's houses. That was then. These days the barrio is almost chic. Lots of people have had the same idea, but we would still buy here if we could.

Isle of Barra


The bench is up at the loch on the Hebredian Isle of Barra. Sitting there the thoughts going through ones mind are..." Midges..midges..midges..bloody dam bloodsucking miniature monsters!"

The Grand Hotel


The Grand Hotel is Lluis Domenech i Montaner's Modernista masterpiece in Palma Mallorca. Since its  construction in 1903 the building has had a chequered history. These days it houses the Fundacio la Caixa cultural centre. Some of the very best touring art exhibitions are displayed here.
