A little bit later than usual, thanks to a lengthy power cut, but finally, here’s this week’s travel theme. The sun is currently hiding behind thick layers of dark cloud, and although the days are supposed to be getting longer, it doesn’t feel like it right now. Still, up ahead I have caught a glimpse of the proverbial silver lining… 
…and I’m hopeful that sunny days will soon be here again. In the meantime, here are some other silvery sights I’ve spotted on my travels. First up, a giant silver needle known as The Spire in the centre of Dublin. 
There was a silver street performer in Boston…
…and a silvery sculpture in Seattle…
…silver skyscrapers in Philadelphia…
…a silver tunnel on the way from Yale University to the New Haven train station…
and a burst of silver fireworks over Manhattan celebrating Fleet Week.
Now I’m serving up this week’s theme on a silver platter for your interpretation. If you would like to join in (everyone’s welcome!) here’s what to do:
