leaving, on a jet plane

Photobucket

Hello all! It's currently 1 am and I'm waiting for another hour or so before I leave for my bus to the airport. I'm going away for a week (posting to continue as normal, or at least I think so). Any guesses as to where I'm going? Hint: it's still in Europe; I've spent a lot of time there in the past, and the weather is almost certainly better than here... although that's not entirely fair, because it's been quite nice here...

In other news, look at what happened to my shoes! This falls into the category of, "they don't make stuff the way they used to." Bah, humbug. I can think of no reason why the heel should fall off one of them. True, they were second hand, but they'd hardly been worn. It looks as though they were made more or less of pressed cardboard... useless. I've had them fixed, but still, I resent it, since I only bought them in June. Grrr.

So, where am I going? ; ) Hope everyone has a good weekend!

I adore you, dear, and I love reading about all of your incredible adventures. You remind me of Mary Poppins, popping off to different lands to brighten the lives of people, an ephemeral beauty that is never in the same place too long!

Have some fun for me, honeybee. ;)

Oh! No!! You are right; they don't make stuff the way they used to... But still this is unacceptable...

Hmmm i'm gonna go with Spain? For some reason I vaguely remember you mentioning it before! Jope you have a grand time wherever it is :)
Also, I feel like clothing stores are producing more expensive horrible clothing lately... its ridiculous spending money on anything and have it break shortly afterwards!

You're going to Barcelona! Right?

SG said...

You gave a clue before. You are going to Spain.

Molly Page said...

I'm horrible at guessing? Where? Where? Where? Is SG right? Spain? And is Velvet even more right? Barcelona?
Leaving the House in THIS?!?!

I am going to guess Spain because I wouldn't mind a sojourn in the sun myself right about now :P

Have a great journey :D And sympthy grrr at your shoe's manufacturers!

Ashley said...

People already said it, but Spain. Maybe Barcelona? :)

Ashley said...

P.S. I am pretty jealous that you can take a little plane ride to spain. I need to get overseas!!!! AHHHH!!

callie said...

Hm. I can't guess where you're going- tell me!! I love that first photo, but too bad that happened to your shoes! I hate when that sorta stuff happens. :/

Emily, Resplendent Tranquility said...

My guess is for Spain, as well. Have a great time!

That's awful about your shoes. How frustrating that must have been. Here's hoping the repair work holds up!

Anonymous said...

I'm going to boldly guess Andalusia, the Alhambra, just because I haven't been reading your blog long enough to know better.

What does is cost to have shoes repaired these days?

Amber said...

they really dont make things like they used to,

Angelica Ng said...

Oh WOW your heels are destroyed! I hate it when that happens to my shoes. It's quite painful to see the heels go away like that.
