I was nominated by my friend Judy Dykstra-Brown to post one favorite travel picture a day for ten days without explanation, then to nominate someone else to participate. That’s 10 days, 10 travel pictures, and 10 nominations. I may not make it to the end of ten days, but for now I nominate Paol Soren. Please link to me so I know you have participated. If you are not interested, no problem. Nowhere in the rules does it say you can’t guess where the photo was taken and that I can’t agree if you are right. Derrick
It seems like a nice summer vacation 😉
It was, Ribana -35 years ago. Thanks very much
I thought so 😉 Another life 😃
Yep
As the skies get greyer and the days are wetter, it’s lovely to see such a happy picture of warmer days, and children doing what they do best – exploring (and panicking their mother that they may be about to fall!)

Quite so, Emma. Thank you very much
This is a wonderful photo! I hope you can tell the story behind this shot @ the comments section — so to not deviate from the rules of the challenge 😀
Without betraying the location I can say that my late wife Jessica is following our children, Louisa and Sam, up the steps. Thank you very much, Janis
You are welcome. You’ve got a beautiful family Derrick <3
🙂
Cornwall?
Close. Thanks, Andrew
What a wonderful photo, Derrick.
Thank you very much, Jill
It looks like someplace in England, but I know that’s not close enough! The child who has reached the top reminds me of Christopher Robin.
That is Sam, Liz. I’d probably have to be vague about somewhere in America. You do have the right country. Thanks very much
😀 You’re welcome, Derrick.
A beautiful wall to explore.
Thank you very much, Mrs W.
Your welcome.
That is some climb!
Certainly when you are so little, Laurie. Thanks very much.
Mousehole?
Spot on, Jenny. Thanks a lot
This dynamic photo could have been taken anywhere in the English-speaking word, Derrivck.
Thanks very much, Dolly. All will be revealed later/
Jenny got the exact spot – Mousehole in Cornwall
I was going to say that with the “No Fishing” sign, it had to be on the cost or big lake. 🙂 Mousehole is an interesting name for a village. How did it get its name?
‘The origins of its modern name ‘Mousehole’ are unknown, although it is suggested that it was derived from the Cornish word Moeshayle, meaning “young woman’s brook”, while others maintain it as simply being a reference to the original tiny harbour, or to a nearby sea cave, which resembled a mouse hole.’ I got this from the internet – most commentators go for the cave, as does the Oxford Dictionary of English Place Names by A.D. Mills.
A fantastic memory, Derrick. The child in blue does look a bit precarious up there.
He was very adventurous and at 23 became the youngest person ever to row any Ocean solo when he won a race across the Atlantic.
Wow! 👏🏻
That’s a lovely picture. It tells a none too new story, but the saga of ambitions we carry in our hearts since the days of infancy.
How well you have understood it, Uma. Many thanks.
A lovely photo of a summer long ago.
“The past is a foreign country?” 😏
Not to me 🙂 Thanks very much, Merril
😀
A wonderful shot. The action and excitement are well captured.
Thank you very much, Rupali
OH! What a wonderful adventure..making beautiful memories!
What brave little climbers! 🙂 “Little Boy Blue” has reached the top…conquered…So glad you captured photos of his moment! 🙂
HUGS!!! 🙂
PS…I always think about those who worked to create such amazing walls!
Thanks very much, Carolyn. Yes. Quite a memory X
You’re half way there Derrick. 🙂
That’s just what I thought, Chrissy 🙂 Thanks a lot
Obviously the UK, but not Wales otherwise the sign would have also been in Welsh. I am going to suggest Devon.
Close – a bit further West. Thanks a lot, Sue
Ah the sadness of the little girl who climbed all the way up there and was too short to see over the wall. Hopefully her mother boosted her up to see what was on the other side.
This raised a smile, Judy. Thanks very much
