Scavenger Hunts

Hello there, Long time no see. Many apologies for the lack of blogging. No excuses, just sometimes life gets in the way!

Nevertheless I've still been taking photos and collecting ideas for blogs along the way. So starting today I'm back to blogging. In fact, I have not one, but two scavenger hunt entries. This month for May and my very belated last month's entries. It seemed a shame not to show them :) So joining in with Greenthumb at 'madewithlove', here they are!

For May's challenge It was very apt that one of the words was 'vintage', as I was taking part in a vintage fair. I decided I would try to get all of my pictures over that weekend. So here goes-

 Bus
I struggled with this one. Even though there were some vintage cars at the show, there were no buses. Until i spotted this image on a Jigsaw! 

Ribbon
Lots of lovely spools of ribbon

Global
Old battered suitcases for global travel 

Whatever I like...
There were many lovely things at the fair, but I particularly liked this collection.

April's Scavenger hunt.
 These were mostly taken over the Easter holidays, where I spent a fabulous week doing lots of lovely things with lots of different people. We were over in Northumberland and hired a cottage for a week. We went on lots of lovely walks, spent time at the beach and had some really nice visits to new places, snapping pictures along the way.

Something sweet
Sweet french toast with fruit and creme fraiche.

Growth
 New Buds

So there you are, two scavenger hunts for the price of one. now I've got my blogging mojo back, I hope you'll keep popping by.

  4. It's wonderful to see you back, Amanda! Whether in Kinabalu or Cumbria, you always come up with great photos. Thanks for including your April shots! I really loved the old harbor posts! I though it was awesome how you hunted down all of May's photos during your vintage fair weekend. Loved the bus and global shots most of all. Happy hunting in June!
