can i get a "loop de doo"


this week i spent several days in orlando, florida at universal studios and islands of adventure. above is the hulk, a roller coaster that towers the ioa skyline. i remember my first time entering this park, it was free as part of a sales pitch tour thing. it was brand new and i was too short to ride this coaster. now its my favourite coming a close second behind dueling dragons. i love roller coasters.

look through someone else's eyes


















In London one of the showstoppers is the Eye. It was a beautiful fall day and I snapped away. We got on the Eye just as the sun was setting. It was georgeous!

Mary(land) Christmas


I got to spend a few days in Maryland snowboarding this week. It was a delightful change from Florida weather. And when its cold outside its better for photography!

wheels and trinkets

















a few weeks ago two of my little sisters and i enjoyed a bike ride when the power went out. it was out for 4 or 5 hours and we decided it was a good time to go get active. it also happened to be the neighborhood garage sale day. i got about 5 pairs of vintage (fancy term for old) earrings and had a blast hanging with my siblings.

how does your garden grow?


kensington gardens is a beautiful place to visit.
its been over a year since i was there in london, england.
on our only free day of the whole trip, we walked around london and saw the beautiful city. this picture was teaken only a few blocks from our hotel. london is probally my favourite vacation spot in the whole world.
