Ailsa’s travel-themed photo challenge this week is Multiples.
I seem to recall that it was Couples just a few short weeks ago. And now it’s Multiples already? To be sure, it’s quite natural—

Ailsa’s travel-themed photo challenge this week is New.
The leaves of the old year blaze forth in a last burst of color. But among the old, at first almost unnoticed, are already the buds
that, as the last old leaf drops away, await the new year!
(Magnolias, Central Park, New York City)
Happy 2013!

Ailsa’s travel-themed photo challenge this week is Transportation.
It’s amazing how much stuff can be transported in a sea kayak! When setting out on a kayak expedition, there’s no need to leave the creature comforts at home. Compared to a multiday backpacking or bicycle trip, a sea kayak expedition is a positively luxurious experience
… until each morning, when all that stuff has to be fitted back into the kayaks
We put off the packing as long as we possibly can and stand around drinking coffee
It’s such a relief to have the last bag in the boat, to snap on the sprayskirt and push off into new waters…

Ailsa’s Travel-Themed photo challenge this eek is Spooky.
This is still an old photo, from Halloween 2011. But I will head out any day now to take fresh photos of this year’s Halloween decorations that are now cropping up in our neighborhood. It should be a spooky Halloween this year…
… unless of course Hurricane Sandy spooks us out first. Current forecasts have it arriving in New York City precisely on Halloween!
