A Week of Glimmers

Moments that activate your senses, giving a feeling of well being / joy.

Sunrise, sunset, reflections, a trio of birds, clouds, the aroma of newly mown grass, a stately gum, river vistas, a mass of wildness, city view, special times with friends.












The Hungry Hikers walked 10km at Scarborough, then celebrated the Chinese Lattern Festival. Our grateful thanks to Leanne for her wonderful organisation.




The magic of a full moon.

A special evening view of the city, sharing a Christmas gift  - a gift of ingredients to make sangria.


Life is not always smooth, but don't stop looking for the glimmers.

I would love to read your comment.

  3. I am enjoying your recent theme of "glimmers"! They are out there waiting to be found and savoured as we find ourselves navigating those not so smooth paths in life!

    Savouring Sangria! Your post brought me back to my visit to Spain where I sipped lots of Sangria!

    1. This Sangria was lovely, but no where as delicious as the real thing.

  4. I love those gum tree photos, reminds me of my trip to Australia, oh, my goodness, I can't believe that was 20 years ago!! Looks like a wonderful hike, under a beautiful sky. There's a Scarborough in my nearby city too.... those settlers really missed home, didn't they.

    1. I'm sure you will find many 'glimmers' in your winter world, Barb. The word 'glimmer' seems to be becoming an 'in' word.
