I love the clean lines and shapes of Sydney’s famous Opera House though I’m not sure it quite fits into Ailsa’s minimalist theme this week (click on the image for a more dramatic view).
Category: Travel Theme
Travel Theme is run by Ailsa from Where’s My Backpack. She chooses a different theme each Friday.
Travel Theme: Colour
There are some wonderful colourful birds in Australia. Here are a few taken at the Taronga Zoo in Sydney last week.
A beautiful Forest Kingfisher flashed by. I couldn’t take my eyes off him. Such a gorgeous colour!
Crimson Rosella
Rainbow Lorikeet
and finally another picture of the cheeky female Electus Parrot (apparently the males are green).
Now hopefully that’s brightened up your day 🙂
The Number Game
Azulejo
Azulejo is a form of Portuguese or Spanish painted, tin-glazed, ceramic tilework. There are some exquisite examples of these on the exterior of houses and other buildings in Lisbon. But sadly there are many broken tiles to be seen.
Travel Theme: Interior
If you are wondering what to do with all your empty wine bottles then how about building a folly?
A sparkling interior.
This 5,000 recycled wine bottle folly is in Westonbury Mill Water Garden near the “Black and White” village of Pembridge in Herefordshire.
