The Journey Continues ...

It took a while to get here.It was a long way to come though - all the way from South Africa.I'd read about it, thought about it, wondered what I'd do when I got it, wondered what was inside.... and then I had it in my hands. Brought it home from the post office.This package has been all over the world, through many hands, borders, countries, across oceans ... and now, here it is, on the Canadian Prairie. And like all wonderful and well-travelled things (and people), this package shows its adventures on its skin. I've been places, it says ... I've seen things and met people.I felt like a little kid, anticipating a birthday gift or a treasure from under the yuletide tree ... what would I find? Like Alice, I didn't know what to expect, but was tantalized: "open this end" ...So I did. Carefully ...And such a delightful array of things I found there. Images of movement, fleeting glimpses of  places and passages. Ticket stubs for trips taken. Maps. Leaves - among them, a four leafed clover for luck on these travels.Day Rover, 2nd Class.Hokianga Vehicle Ferry.Ho Chi Minh Museum.From A to B ... this Journey of a Photograph will continue  in a little while, with my additions.My thanks to Emily at searching to see for letting me be a part of this process.
