Travel - sounds

The Irish musicians in Dublin...

What kind of sounds characterised your holiday?

It might be the sounds of birds, or waves, or instruments, music, or people's accents.
What was different about the SOUND?

Travel - a sense of place

No picture to prompt you today. Start by closing your eyes for a moment and remembering the place you are writing about. Where are you standing? What can you see?

Now write - describe the place in detail using all your senses.

Travel - landscape


This was the entrance to a cave on a beach in North Cornwall. So enticing and exciting!

  • How did the landscape strike you in your holiday location?
  • Was it different from what you usually see?
  • Did you like it?
  • Would you like to live there all the time?

Travel - heritage

This week the writing prompts and journalling ideas are - appropriately enough for the summer holiday season - about travel. Write about a particular journey all week if you can. As a scrapbooker this should get you nicely advanced on your holiday album.

Here's my son on Brighton Pier. It was a very traditional kind of English seaside experience - must have been very similar to the seaside trips of people for generations - except for the prices!

How does your holiday compare with previous holidays and vacations? Ones that you have taken, and ones that earlier visitors to the same place may have experienced.

When we visited Fishbourne Roman Villa, we saw this Roman skeleton, thousands of years' old.

  • How much do you know about the history of the place you visited?

The journey - where would you like to go?

Todays' prompt is "Wish I were there..."

Where do you wish you were? Can you find a photo? Why is it your ideal place?
