Bristol, famous for its suicide bridge, also known as the Clifton Suspension Bridge. If you google the history of this bridge, you'll come across the many suicide cases, hence this signboard advertising the samaritans care number.
Here are more baby photos taken during Megan's christening at the Pontprennau Community Church in Cardiff.
I don't think you can see it from here but she has got very long eyelashes.
Come on... please be seated while you have your meal.
Unsatisfied with what he has...
So he tried on someone else's heels. Managed to walk quite a distance without falling.
Enjoying herself on the slide.
She actually came up to me and posed for the camera.
I think this is one of the best shot I have taken during the event. The daughter was showing her mother what she was doing while Megan looked on (behind).
I was in Cardiff the capital of Wales about 2 weeks ago. I was invited to the christening of my friend's daughter. Been pretty busy lately, just got back from Oslo, Norway couple of days ago.
Anyway here are some photos of the event.
The two sisters, Megan and Beth. Beth is the elder sister.
She just turn one this month, trying to walk while holding tightly to her mom.
Then, she got pretty curious wondering what is this big black box that flashes light every now and then.
Trying to persuade her that this is a better toy than the other so I could get my hands on the them! Hehe! *Misspent childhood, what to do*
Megan couldn't find her mom so she decided to ring up her mom. However, ..."Can someone teach me how to use a phone, please?"
Starring straight into her grandmother's eyes, trying to tell her that she loves her grandmother. So lovely.
Megan is just so cute and adorable. Don't you agree?
After checking into our villa we decided to explore this awesome island. There is a bus stop about 5 mins from our villa, but the buses come like every 30mins or maybe more and they operate till 9pm only. That would be very inconvenient if you are planning to come back later. So...we decided to rent a quadbike.
We then drove all the way from Perivolos to Fira. It took us about half an hour at first but it gets faster when you get used to the bike.
Along the way to Fira, we stop at a nice place and safe place to take some photos with this machine. Who wouldn't do that?
Don't be fooled by its look. It is powered by only a 50cc engine. Fifty!! I really wish this thing could go faster! However, the roads are mostly curvy and some goes through hilly places so I wouldn't recommend anyone speeding with this thing.
The good thing about this is you are able to park anywhere in the town as long as you are not obstructing traffic.
So here we are in Fira, the capital of Santorini. There is a port in Fira which is known as the Old Port (notice the boat far down the cliff?). There are two ways to get to the port, either by cable car or by foot.
If you decide to take the walkway down you have to beware of the donkey poos :P Yes another alternative would be riding a donkey down which will cost you about 4-5euros. On the other hand, the cable car will cost you 4 euros. The cost is about the same so its really up to you. Just try not to think about donkey, going crazy, and the cliff. hehe.
This is a church at the top of Fira. That is actually the real colour of the sky.
If you notice the stairway going downwards? Yes lots of walking needed!
Surprisingly, towards the evening you are able to see the moon. Notice the white crescent in between the tower and the dome? That is the moon.
This is the interior of the church. I had to crank up the ISO as its pretty dark in there.
The Greece flag consists of white and blue so are the houses in Santorini.
The colours are simply amazing! You have to see it for yourself to believe it :)
Some hotel in Fira. I just like how they match the colours and the way they paint their stairs.
More photos coming up :)
