Another Wednesday and, with it, a wander. The skies are high and blue, the sun shining and, even though travel is limited, it feels like a day to get out and about. This Wander isn’t too far from where I live, but felt like a window into another world, another time. Hope you enjoy it…Continue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Belarusian Memorial Chapel”

Wednesday Wander Revisited – Donostia San Sebastian Beaches
This week I felt like taking a beach break (perhaps because I can’t actually take one in real life). So I’m revisiting the glorious beaches of Donostia San Sebastian, Spain. I still remember my first glimpse of La Concha Beach between two buildings – the blue-green water and glorious view – and how unreal itContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Donostia San Sebastian Beaches”
Wednesday Wander Revisited – Graffiti in the Beauchamp Tower, London
This week I’m revisiting a place that’s quite close to where I live, yet where you can see almost two millennia of history. The Tower of London, in one form or another, has been dreaming by the Thames since Roman times. However, it has a dark history, of which the Beauchamp Tower is just oneContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Graffiti in the Beauchamp Tower, London”
Wednesday Wander Revisited – Ellis Island, New York
This week I’m revisiting Ellis Island, somewhere I visited as part of a trip to New York a couple of years ago. I’d always wanted to go to New York, yet even when I lived quite close to it (an hour’s flight), I never did. When I did finally get there, I fell in love.Continue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Ellis Island, New York”
Wednesday Wander Revisited – Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao
Another week, and another Wander revisited. This time we’re heading to Spain, and to one of the most extraordinary buildings I’ve ever seen. I visited back in 2017, on a wonderful trip that took in two GOT filming locations, some spectacular beaches, beautiful coastal towns and a salad we enjoyed so much that we stillContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao”
Wednesday Wander Revisited – Plas Newydd, Llangollen
Here is the next in my series of revisiting Wednesday Wanders. I’ve been to Llangollen many times in my life; I have family near there, and a lot of history tied up in the little town, nestled among the ancient hills. But my first visit to Plas Newydd was only three years ago – aContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Plas Newydd, Llangollen”
Walking Through Rivendell (Revisited)
I forgot. Again. Heat is melting my brain, I guess? I have over 100 Wednesday Wanders just waiting to be reposed, but I keep forgetting. So here we are, Thursday and wanderless. However, in honour of it being such a stinking hot day here (30 degrees and humid), I’ve decided to post, not exactly aContinue reading “Walking Through Rivendell (Revisited)”
Wednesday Wander Revisited (on a Thursday) – Surfing Santa Cruz
How has another week passed already? Time is very strange of late; it stretches and shrinks, some days feeling endless, others over almost as soon as they begin. When I get asked what day it is, I often have to take a moment to think, the sameness of lockdown life making it hard to rememberContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited (on a Thursday) – Surfing Santa Cruz”
Wednesday Wander Revisited – Rocher De La Vierge, Biarritz
Another Wednesday, another Wander post revisited. While we still can’t travel (or have to quarantine if we do), it’s nice to look back at places I’ve been, as well as consider places I’d like to go once things go back to whatever normal is going to be. This week I’m wandering to Biarritz, somewhere IContinue reading “Wednesday Wander Revisited – Rocher De La Vierge, Biarritz”
Wednesday Wander – Times Square and Rockefeller Plaza, New York
It’s Wednesday, and time for another wander. I’m continuing with our recent trip to New York – apologies for the number of posts but there was just so much to see, as we crammed in as much as we could in the few days we had! This week, I’m wandering to Times Square and RockefellerContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Times Square and Rockefeller Plaza, New York”
