Walking along the streets in New Orleans 2019, I was passed by this exciting little parade. It wasn’t long before there was dancing around me and I was given the a few of the pretty beads.
Today they sit in my bedroom in Canberra Australia, I smile each time I see them, thankful for such great memories!

The formidable and once highly important Golden Gate, Constantinople (now Istanbul) built approx 390CE would play an important part as a triumphal entry into the famed city. Imagine the celebrations and activity that once took place here, now so quiet so sad

Holmenkollen Chapel
Oslo, Norway
Originally built in 1903, the wooden chapel was burnt it down in 1992 by arsonists.
The chapel was rebuilt in 1996 by Arne Sødal in the medieval Dragestil style.

HMQS Gayundah (later HMAS Gayundah), a flat iron gunboat, started service in 1884, enjoyed a busy work life from war duties which ended in 1921, gravel barge and finally in 1958 was run aground to become a breakerwater at Redland Bay QLD.
“On 9 April 1903, the Gayundah transmitted the first wireless message received from a ship at sea to an Australian wireless station. The historic message sent to the receiving station in Brisbane read: “Gun drill continued this afternoon and was fairly successful – blowing squally and raining – prize firing tomorrow. Marconi insulators were interfered with by rain but easily rectified and communication since has been good. Good night.” The ship’s aerial was a tall bamboo pole lashed to the mast.[5][10]” Wikipedia
Gayundah’s 6 inch gun was removed prior to being beached and is now housed at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. I am glad, once she has physically faded away at the beach, her memory will live on with her large gun.

Did you know that there are ancient Egyptian dwellings in Madrid Spain??
The Temple of Debod was built in 200BC, not far from Aswan. It was dedicated to the God Amun.
As the Aswan dam was built in the late 1960’s where the Temple was located, this was a gift from Egypt to Spain to give thanks for their help in moving artifacts.
In 1972 the ancient Temple was relocated in the Parque del Oeste, Madrid.
The perfect place to watch a beautiful sunset over Madrid.
