Travel theme: Late

Posted on March 18, 2016 by ailsapm

Yikes, I got busy and was very nearly late getting my weekly travel theme up in time, so the theme this week sort of picked itself. Here are a few shots that conjure up for me the term late, starting with a shot of the supermoon a day too late in New York – the day of the supermoon a fog came down and the supermoon turned into a foggy glow instead.

I’m not sure why these sheep were running but it looks like they were late for something.

The gravestone of the late, mysterious, beloved Mary, all the way from Ireland, found overlooking the prairies of Whidbey Island.

So if it’s not too late in your part of the world, maybe you’d like to create your own interpretation of this week’s theme. If you would like to join in (everyone’s welcome!) here’s what to do:

  • Create your own post and title it Travel theme: Late
  • Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too

About ailsapm

Hi there! I’m Ailsa Prideaux-Mooney. I’ve lived in many places, and travelled to many more. I had a lot of fun getting there and being there, wherever there happened to be at the time. I climbed a castle wall in Czesky Krumlov, abseiled down cliffs to go caving in the west of Ireland, slept on the beach in Paros, got chased by a swarm of bees in Vourvourou (ok that wasn’t fun, but it was exciting), learned flower arranging in Tokyo, found myself in the middle of a riot in Seoul, learned to snowboard in Salzburg, got lost in a labyrinth in Budapest and had my ice cream stolen by a gull in Cornwall. And I’m just getting started. If you’ve enjoyed what you’ve read so far, I’d love you to follow my travelogue - wheresmybackpack.com - and remember, anyone who tries to tell you it’s a small world hasn’t tried to see it all.

    I really like your selection of “things” that are late. My favorite is the gravestone – but the sheep are the funniest 🙂 They really look like they are late for a meeting!

    A spooky moon, but the sheep -oh Ailsa- those sheep, I can almost hear them thinking ‘Late, late, late, late’, and nothing else haha. 😀
    Here’s my take on the theme:

    Ha, you may have been late but not as late as I thought you were. I updated my bookmarks but inadvertently saved last week’s challenge instead of your home page. I kept checking but it looked like you hadn’t posted this week’s challenge. Luckily I realised what I’d done or not only would I have been late, I would have missed this week’s all together.
    I like all your pics but I love the moon shot most. Here’s my late post: https://jennysotherstuff.wordpress.com/2016/03/20/too-late-mum/
