I was tagged by [richies], from [An Arkie's Musings], in a meme called 5 things. He gave me the assignment of creating a post showing five of my favourite personal photographs! That's what I did, but the post will only appear during the morning (now I must go to sleep). Then, I will pass on this tag in another post. Thank you, Richies!!!...

About the missing wheel

Photos by Sailor Girl of the same beautiful blue wheel in Lisbon (the one that suddenly disappeared).

The first two on this post were taken BEFORE someone decided to take the opportunity to make some extra cash out of it. See?? No advertisement yet!!!

The third was taken after someone seized the opportunity!! You may see a huge passengership passing by. She looks really small compared to the wheel!!!

If you click on the label «Lisbon wheels» you may find more extraordinary photos taken by me to this beauty!!! hehehe!

PROJECT BLUE - TAKE 5

Today's photo (which was kindly sent by Alexandre Correia) is Take 5 for Anna Carson's [PROJECT BLUE]. It depicts an airplane flying throughout our beautiful Portuguese Blue Sky!!!

- Excuse me, Sir, could you take me to my favourite local corner shop?

- And where is that?

- It's at [Kissimmee], Florida.

- Ok, Jump right in! We'll take only a few hours.

- Thank you, Sir!

Today my doctor told me to take it easy, not to worry so much about everything, try to find a way to deal with all this pressure we all have to endure on a daily basis and keep on posting whatever I like. I like lighthouses! So here's another one, taken at Oeiras (another Lisbon's Municipality, neighbour to Cascais), with clouds on a beautiful blue sky!!...

«Blue skies, smilin’ at me, nothin’ but blues skies do I see... Bluebirds singin’ a song, there’s nothin’ but bluebirds all day long... Seems like all the days are hurryin’ by, when you’re in love, my how they fly... Those blue days, all of them gone, nothin’ but blue skies from now on. Seems like all them days are hurryin’ by, cause when you’re in love, then my how they fly! Them blue days, all of ’em gone, and there’s nothin’ but blue skies from now on.»

«Blue Skies», by Louis Armstrong.

Today I met another fabulous blog, [MAUI SKIES], born on Monday, July 24th, 2006. As Kuanyin refers, that was a New Moon Day, «... an excellent time to begin new projects, and so I am initiating my photo blog today which will focus on the majestic skies of Maui. If anyone would like to submit an awesome photograph, I am open to this, and should you wish to attach a paragraph about your photo, I will include this and give you credit for your photo.»

Kuanyin is one of our friends from CityDailyPhotoBlogs. She's in charge of [Wailea Daily Photo] and sends Love backatcha from Maui!...
