Four Corners Of The World ... #BarAThon

I am taking part in the Blog-A-Rhythm Bar-a-thon challenge. The theme can be anything that requires grit and endurance, but not necessarily fitness related. And there are daily prompts. 

So my theme is simple, it's a blogging marathon about things to do with me in pictures, starting at one and ending at seven.

These four little bears are actually Christmas ornaments for the tree but they are quite heavy so instead they sit in a little tray in my room.

As today's prompt is Four Corners Of The World, these bears are going to take you on a journey to some places.

When my son was little, he drove Santa Bear from the North Pole nuts by asking for things that he had conjured up in his mind.  Santa Bear was pretty clever and his improvisations and apology notes invariably brought joy to my little boy.

The US Bear recalls the first time both my kids visited the US. My daughter was seven when she and I first visited and we travelled to a few cities. But the one journey that we both will never forget is flying over the Rocky Mountains from LA to St. Louis. It was a magnificent day and the mountains were so clear to see.  My son was eight when he first visited the US. He was fascinated by the bridges in San Fransisco and New York. Perhaps that fascination led him to becoming an architect.  

New Zealand Bear recalls the first time I landed in New Zealand. The flight into Wellington was beautiful and the city looked spectacular nestled among hills. Each time I fly into Wellington, I pray that the weather is good as it is such a scenic city and it's such a thrill flying over the suburbs and trying to figure out where you are. 

And last but not least, UK Bear recalls a very enjoyable trip to the UK many moons ago. Of course we visited London, but it's not London I'm going to write about but Pontypridd in Wales. My aunt's house is high up on a hill and during the day the scenery looked just like any other, a view of the valley and houses. But at night, when the city lights came on, it looked like Fairyland. That's a sight I won't forget. 

Hope you enjoyed the four corners of the world with the little bears. 

Share in the comments, a moment that comes back so vividly that you can actually relive it just as if it was happening now.
