Murano glass unicorn

Just a water taxi ride away from Venice is the glass making island of Murano. Venetian glass is famed around the world and here is a small glass unicorn that can be found in the Murano Glass Museum.

A merry-go-round in Antwerp

A few years ago, we were visiting Antwerp when we found this merry-go-round. We have since seen it in Brussels for a Christmas fair - so we gather it moves around a bit.

I could say I've been travelling.....

But while that is partially true, the fact is that until recently I haven't had many opportunities to spend the time to update blogs. Work has been manic and our computer at home is always used by hubby while he is studying for his MBA.

That's all changed now - I recently bought my very own little Apple MacBook and now I'm tooled up and ready to rock and roll.

I have also been working on a new blog, dedicated to my renewed interest in photography (that's because of my new digital SLR!)

So in the interests of starting out again - here I go...

This unicorn is actually in my dining area, but it was bought at the Ice Hotel in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden.
