On the road

So a few weeks ago my family and I flew across the pond to embark on a two week road trip, starting in Canada where we drove down the west coast into the United States. We landed into Calgary in Canada, where we then travelled down towards Vancouver. The scenery was incredible, and made the hours of travelling down there slightly more bearable. After soaking in the scene in Vancouver, we headed across the border (where we met the most talkative and helpful border officer I've ever met) and plodded towards Seattle. Bringing the first sunshine of our trip (we were eternally greatful) it really was a beautiful city with lots of shops and markets. The trip then took us to San Francisco which was amazing. Here we were able to stop and rest our tired bones for three days and then the return journey involved heading back up to Vancouver, driving through areas such as Portland and many small towns and pit stops. It's safe to say by the end of the trip we were stuffed to the brim with burgers and chips and had done enough travelling to last us a lifetime, but it really was a memorable trip with many fun memories. 






























Sorry if the spacing between some of the images has messed up and is all over the place, I know it looks awful! I am still working out how to stop that!

Venice

I have been awful with uploading to my blog recently and I have to say I am considering whether or not to stop my blog all together or to carry it on and just upload when and if I feel like it. But anyway, last month about 70 of us (comprising of my art and design foundation group and our tutors) woke up at the crack of dawn to head of to the beautiful city of Venice for an art based trip, but mostly to go and experience the world famous Biennale. The trip only lasted 4 days but I can honestly say I have never seen so much art in under a week but I absolutely loved every minute of it! I came home with a camera full of photos and a stomach FULL of Italian food (I have avoided pizza for a while since I've gotten back)





I have such a love for photography and the Biennale provided loads, I was in awe...

The Asian Pavillion was great, it was full of colour and shapes.


The hot chocolate was AMAZING.

The final day when we went off to do some shopping and have a good explore in the city, while trying to avoid getting lost!
