PHOTO-A-DAY - DAY 11 - 11th January .... Looking down.

Here we are ... Looking down to Sun Moon lake in Taiwan from the gondola 
on the ropeway (cable car) which links Ita Thao with the Formosan Aboriginal 
Culture Village, a sprawling theme park that combines a replica Thao cultural village.
We didn't have time to check out the village but it was worth the ride for the scenery.

PHOTO-A-DAY - DAY FIVE - January 5th....Found

Hmmm something  I have found.
How about this one?
This is Stumpy. 
He has a short tail and a bit of damage on his lower back because 
I think he got caught in the sliding door to the workroom one day.
Today we 'found' him again in the dog kennel.
We have a large family of these guys around our yard and have started identifying them.
So far we have Stumpy and three others marked with a dab of nail polish 
on their heads - Whitey, Bronze and Redman!

PHOTO-A-DAY - DAY THREE - January 3rd. ... My Town.

When I decided to do this catch up I thought it would be a challenge to just use photos on the Ipad but guess what I ran out already and it's only day Three!
So I've extended the range and decided I can use what's on the iPhone as well. Yeah.
So here's not really my town, but where I live - our home. In Albion Park Rail.
A snapshot taken from the reserve out the back with the Illawarra Escarpment behind it.
A beautiful part of the world.

I need to refocus and have decided to try and activate my blog again.
So I'm going to catch up with a photo a day and add any other life happening stuff along the way.
You never know someone just might read it.
I am inspired by my friend Pennie who seems to be able to find the time to post every day
even tho she has a busy life schedule.
I am taking my prompts a blog on her suggestion ....

It is traditional Formosan food and we were visiting Sun Moon Lake in the middle of Taiwan.
This was the view from our bedroom window!
