On Thursday’s, I share pictures about ‘Echos of my Neighbourhood.
I would like to invite you to participate. The challenge is quite simple.
Every Thursday, share a photo of bits and pieces of wherever you are at any point in time. It could be a house, backgrounds of your neighbourhood, activities and so forth and you can tag it Echos of my Neighbourhood, add my link to your post so that I will get the ping from your post.
Every other Thursday, I will publish a post with the links of all those who participated the previous week.
This is just a fun way of getting to see more of the World around us through your eyes since we cannot all be at those places, we could, at least, see them through you.
We found time during the weekend to go to the Miracle Garden where I took tons of photos. Just sharing a bit of some of them with you and will share a bit more another time.
It’s a lovely place to spend a day. Always teeming with tourists and families especially during the weekend.
There are blooming petals everywhere and the mingled floral essence of these flowers hangs delicately in the air as you have an ice-lolly and traipse around leisurely or enjoy relaxing in one of the sit-outs or swings to be found around the perimeters.

Last Week Echoes gave us some peeks of different neighbourhoods, hop on let’s go see and we will be glad to see some of yours
Cycling to Ostpark beautiful, serene piece of Munich, Germany. A good place for a day’s outing.
Thoughts and entanglements Nature’s bursts in spades of beauty. The circle of birth and death.
Like Mercury Colliding Nature has so much in store for us and teaches us through its cycle. A Spring miracle to behold.
Mammoth Norwich Castle museum and art gallery certainly holds some ginormous treasure in them.
Doggerland I didn’t know about this until I looked at Kim’s photo and read her short presentation.
Mile of daffs beautiful miles of springing daffodils.
Thank you to all Echoes’ contributors. I am learning a whole lot from this challenge as well as having fun with it.
It would lovely to have you join us. Regards















What delightful pictures!

Miracle Garden looks wonderful, Jacqui – psychedelic sixties flower power!
I might not submit anything this week as I am catching up on revising my children’s novel; examiner paperwork is starting to roll in; and in May I won’t be about much at all, what with my husband’s sixtieth birthday and my daughter’s wedding. I’ll try to drop by when I can :).
