The Road Less Travelled


Yesterday, we had steps to walk up. Today we have steps to walk down - although we could take the narrow traverse to the right and then we might be on the road less travelled...

The Old Town is a myriad of little streets, up, down, through tunnels, turn left, turn right. It's easy to get lost. Of course, that's the best thing to do: get lost. Wander - enjoy - and see where the road takes you.

  2. Delicious little street, walking down is a plus, "remonter" not so much.
    It must be quite easy to find a less traveled path or... get lost.

  3. That's exactly what I do when in a new place...wander...and explore the roads less traveled.

  4. How many times I walked in a street to realize there was no way out, and being compeled to get back and find an other exit. That's the game. A labyrinth game.
    I love it.

  5. Yesterday's colours were a bit over the top but today's are all softness and harmony. Just beautiful.

    I would agree with your previous post that "real luxury is time".

    I was also most impressed by the pictures of the man sifting pebbles. It looks like a back-breaking and never-ending job to sift an entire beach, or even a portion of it. What a brave man!

  6. I'm so glad you take us along on your adventures, Jilly. I love all of the plants. They turn the streets into little parks. This is an enchanting shot.

  7. This is exactly the kind of places I love to walk. You can discover so many interesting things when walking along these narrow passage ways.

  8. I enjoy looking at all the different textures in this photo, esp. the brick, pebbles, rocks, as well as the "softer" objects.

  9. Jilly I would love to wander these streets along with you. Wouldn't we have fun! This one today is magical. I would have to stop at each door and take a photograph! Hope you got one of that little tricycle too.

  12. You know if you just alternated these two images I'd still be happy. Who can not smile at these. What a lovely decision to make up or down.
