Ailsa, you once invited me to participate in your Travel theme – and I have, almost every week, for several years. Your theme will be greatly missed, but I hope we will keep You!
My interpretation became a long one…almost every picture will have an explanation as to why they represent Adventure. Not that I think the explanation is needed – but still.
Thank you for all these years of hosting! Life is the greatest Adventure.
A puppy in the house is the start of a great adventure – and one you must be well prepared for
The adventure migh also include competitions…
To travel with them through life and help them grow to …
…become responsible and stable young men and women
To meet other cultures and learn from them…
Traveling is always an adventure – especially to very different countries from your own. Tibetan plateau, 5000m
The Great Wall of China
Lake Taupo, New Zealand. Christmas Eve, 2011
And to the adventure of the adventurous – Tolkien land
The world of architecture is a neverending adventure…be it great cathedrals like Sagrada Familia…
…or sculptures in your own hometown
Rome – skull/bones/mummies
Birds and other animals…
Listening to and seeing a hero in real life is overwhelming
Not to be forgotten – the adventurous meetings with blogging friends!

Many of us will miss Ailsa’s travel theme as it brought so many of us together. It will be shortly missed. A nice tribute to your adventures also. You have seen many of the world to spots. Maybe you will come visit me?
We have been thinking about one more trip to NZ, but it means a long flight, and then you should stay away longer before returning home. My parents are very old and I visit and help them every day, so – right now that trip is too long.
It is important yo be there for your parents. I am in the same position and my big trips are over.
That is life
A great compilation of excellent adventures and journeys.
Thank you, Manja. Almost everything you start doing leads to adventures, doesn’t it.
Sad to see the end of Ailsas theme, I will miss it
Me too. Always fun to see what would come up.
So many great shots! I especially love the crazy students one 🙂 🙂 Thank you for alerting me to Ailsa’s departure. I’ll pop and say goodbye 🙂
She promised to stay!
Fabulous! You’ve certainly had plenty of adventures, and still more to come, I hope, Ann Christine!
And so have you, Sue! There are so many different adventures, so we all have a fair share- I think.
Well, I do hope so
