Photo a Day Challenge - Day 100 Where you ate breakfast

Why at 40,000 ft of course, where else?? This series of photos is from EK001 - Dubai to London in Business; QF21 - Sydney to Tokyo Narita in Economy, and finally EK418, which is between Sydney and Auckland in Economy. It is a good representation on the differences between Qantas and Emirates Economy breakfast, but the Emirates business was a light breakfast, and the lunch that was served later in the flight was far more exquisite and plentiful!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 98 Younger You

I couldn't find anything as a 'younger you' in my flickr account, but I went back and found this little gem. It was when we went to Aalborg in Denmark. It was a Conference L went to and I was there in the 'Partners Program'. We went on a nature excursion, and what you are seeing is a water spring in the bogs up in the northern Jutland area, not far from Aalborg itself.

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 97 Inside your Wallet

Well, I'm not going to show you inside my wallet (it is way to full of tax receipts and the wallet itself is about to fall apart) so this is something that is STILL inside my wallet, even though I went to China in August last year!!!

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 95 Lunch

Back in 2009, I went to Santiago Chile for a Conference, and as part of the Conference, we went to Valle Nevado up in the Andes. Lunch, which was served inside but we could take it outside, was devine, but I was more impressed in the surrounding views as opposed to the food. Would you agree?

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 94 Tiny

I had a little difficulty in deciding what to do for this one... I could've done Bronty as a puppy, and even then, she wasn't that 'tiny'... So I went in search of what was in my flickr account, and I got zero hits for 'Tiny'! Hmmm, I puzzled for a little bit, and then I thought, 'what about one of my macro shots' and this is what I got in return. It is a Crocus which is in the back garden, and its tiny stamens are of bright yellow.

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 93 Someone that makes you happy

With her unconditional love, it would be a hands down to Bronty... Not that other people DON'T make me happy, because they truely do and there's way to many to name individually, but Bronty just has that 'special' kinda happiness... Even though at times, she can be a complete and utter cow, she still remains close...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 92 Mail

It was a long time ago, June 15th 2010 actually, when I achieved Gold Status with Emirates. I had used the airline extensively for a period, and I will go back to flying with them, but for now at least, I'm simply price driven and the best fare on the day wins...

Photo a Day Challenge - Day 92 Colour

I Often get asked as to whats my favourite colour... And, it has nothing to do with my chosen working field, but as a greenkeeper and Turf Researcher, I would have to say of course it is green!

Why is that I hear you ask?? Well, to me, its such a pleasing colour, its not 'harsh' as some of the reds, oranges and yellows, its not as 'cold' as some of the blues around either. Yet green, seems relaxing, cool and simply pleasant... And, in this photo of the fierce and mean Jasmine, aren't you becoming relaxed seeing the green background of my lawn? I am...
