£506.00 in £2 coins

I posted a similar picture on the 3rd June 2014 http://365project.org/susiemc/365/2014-06-03
I was saving £2 coins for a holiday, an 'extra' one with my friend Nicola. The holiday was supposed to be in February last year but we postponed it because of the uncertainty with the date for my hip replacement. However, we're going on the 8th February this year.........to Abu Dhabi!! In the meantime I've filled my money box again. This will be my pocket money. I've never been anywhere like this before. It's not my usual sort of holiday destination and I'll be way out of my comfort zone but I'm VERY excited. Nicola's husband lives and works there and Nicola half lives there and has been trying to persuade me to go there for a long time.
Well done Sue have a great time and we look foreward to seeing the pictures

@barneyone Thank you Rita. It will be a very different sort of photography for me. I've even bought a polarising filter to help me cope with the bright sunshine.

@chimfa Thank you Jane. You're absolutely right about saving those coins. They do add up and you don't miss them a few at a time.

Oh Sue, I do the same thing - throw $2 coins in a money box for that "extra" holiday! Never thought to photograph it like this though - I love it :) Have a wonderful time in Abu Dhabi - it is so wonderful that your friend lives there so you will see many interesting places that the average tourist doesn't. ENJOY :) Fav
