WEEKEND REFLECTIONS AND THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP

Time for Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter A and Around.  These photographs were taken in 2019 when I visited my family in Cairns.  We watched the big wheel called the Reef Eye move AROUND a circle each time and then we boarded it.  You can see all our hands are AROUND the main column in the pod.  My granddaughter, ANNIKA is on the right. The final shot  are the REFECTIONS in the pool at the Esplanade.  

I appreciate your visit and comments.

 I hope you enjoyed this post today.

WEEKEND REFLECTIONS AND THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP

Time for Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup and the letter is D and Dark. Jon DROVE the whole family when it was nearly DARK into Cairns Central to go up on the big wheel called the Reef Eye.  By the time we arrived, it was very DARK and the lights of the wheel stood against the DARK sky. 

Above is not a very good REFLECTION shot, however as we are going round in the wheel ourselves, this is the wheel’s REFLECTION in the windows of the building opposite us.

Below in the pod, is my DAUGHTER Judith with a DARK blue top on.  We are holding on the central column and then we could spin the pod around as we moved. 

Next Friday I am hoping to have one  image to cover all that is asked of these 2 memes.
Thank you for visiting and I also for your comments.
