Journey's End by maggiemae

Journey's End

The last journey took us home on a cold, drizzly winter’s day. We remember the hot temperatures of the last few months in all sorts of scenes - beaches, rivers, historic hotels, mountainsides etc.
Three good things:
1. Doesn’t pay to go over our experiences while waiting for sleep - too much to quieten the brain.
2. Safe and sound.
3. Nearly every battery in the house was flat but the wood burner worked so well!

There's no place like home...

@busylady Thanks Judith - at least the sun came out after a grey day of drizzle!
May 14th, 2018  
What beautiful light - you certainly get around, don't you!

@fbailey In the 3 months we were away, the most we stayed was 3 days at friends or relations' places. Generally it was one day!

Wow what a marvellous journey you have been on! I bet you are pleased to be back in your own bed though! Always good to travel but there is nothing like home is there? Fabulous light in this image of home! Fav!

May 15th, 2018  
I’ve enjoyed your NZ tour!
May 15th, 2018  
@dide Good to see so many different areas in NZ, Dianne! Wish I could do it all again - but not in winter!
May 15th, 2018  
I recognise that place. What beautiful light, how nice to be home! You must have so many memories from this last trip, and I'm sure you've seen more of NZ than most kiwis have!
May 15th, 2018  
@kiwichick I'm quite sure we have seen more, Lesley! We planned our journey with visits with friends and family but outside of that- we just chose our destination, how remote didn't matter as we were self contained!
May 15th, 2018  
What a great trip you have had, but it must be nice to be home again.
May 15th, 2018  
@onewing Well, there's a bit more room in the bed, Babs!
May 15th, 2018  
Love the rich light and shadows! Fav!
May 15th, 2018  
So Maggie - it's Home sweet Home for a time - the cosy comfort of home and the luxury and cosiness of our own bed ! Lovely shot of strong sunlight and shadows under an ominous sky
May 15th, 2018  
@beryl Yes Beryl. It is cosy and comfortable but not challenging like the journey! However we probably need to rest and not be challenged for a while!
May 15th, 2018  
A wonderful trip, lots of experiences to remember & great photos, a lovely shot of your homecoming.....Fav
May 15th, 2018  
Wonderful shot to close your trip - I like how the lighting is - you used it to your advantage perfectly. Nicely done and I'm glad you're safe and sound - home sweet home!
May 15th, 2018  
home sweet home - no place like it
May 15th, 2018  
@elatedpixie Actually glad we do have a home Ms P! Would not like to be on the road permanently!
May 15th, 2018  
After all your travels it must be nice to be home safe and sound
May 15th, 2018  
Loving this beautiful view of your cosy house & to think we slept three night here....a lovely memory! You were so generous with your hospitality! A big fave for the photo & the memory! I expect you & John will be planning your next trip!
May 15th, 2018  
@happypat Actually we are not planning anything! Winter puts a stop on enthusiasm!
May 15th, 2018  
@happypat The grass has been cut - doesn't look dried out or has stopped growing because of the cold temps! The weeds are shoulder height!
May 15th, 2018  
Home sweet home. a lot of work awaits once you're home again. .
May 16th, 2018  
@bruni You're telling me, Bruni -so much to do WOF, opticians, renewal of licences both car and man, doctors, physio, car transmission fix, weeds shoulder height! Whew!
May 16th, 2018  
love the light and shadows and your shadow selfie!
May 16th, 2018
