After five weeks of blogging, I have a guilty confession to make. I love when I find a blog where stories are told in pictures. No words necessary.
When I stumbled upon Gabbies Island, the whole idea tickled me. An Island, in a sea of words, and in the midst of it, Wordless Wednesday, where a photo says it all. Thanks, Gabbie (some pretty cute pics there, too) 🙂
This is not to diminish all the faithful writers out there. It’s just that – sometimes, we need to take a breath.
So, this week, I thought I would take you for a visit to my own special Isle of Quiet.
This was a couple of years ago, when I went with my folks on a ten day trip to the East Coast of Tasmania.
Approaching Port Arthur Peninsula.
A place of grim convict stories…
I mean – literally. This is Dad – watching the DVD on my laptop!
Approaching Coles Bay.
No words necessary…
Some local wildlife…
(no family resemblance whatsoever)
A place to find the Quiet.
Where do you go to find the Quiet? Is it a special place, or something more abstract? Please share with us 🙂

It really is too bad that I can only LIKE this once. It’s more like adore! 🙂 Thank you Alarna!
Aw, thanks Gabbie! So glad you like it, as it wouldn’t have occurred to me were it not for you 🙂
Of course there’s a Free street on the Isle of Quiet! 🙂 Love these types of posts too. Thanks Alarna.
Yes, that sign spun me out! Glad you enjoyed…will bring out some more of these from time to time. Have a great week 🙂
This is a wonderful post, Alarna. I love photo essays, too. Gosh, I should dig out some pics of hubby’s and my trip to Hawaii a few years ago. Thanks for the reminder! I love the title for this post! Perfect!
Thanks Lynn 🙂 Hawaii – well, there’s an island worth visiting! Would love to see a post about that! I just realised the other day I have all these neglected photos sitting there, so why not share them 🙂
Gorgeous photos. I go to Jekyll Island as often as I can to find my quiet. It is one of my favorite places in the world.
Wow, Jekyll Island looks like just the kind of place to go! Beautiful historic buildings…I can see why you would love it 🙂
Wow! You have eyes for photography. 🙂
Awww, thanks! So glad to see you here 🙂
What a beautiful post. Thank you for letting us (me) into your personal life through your photo’s. You have such nice parents 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it! My parents are special…and though we are worlds apart in many ways, we seemed to have a found a way to bridge the gap. That trip was one of them 🙂
I’m glad you had a special time with your parents. When we were children, our parents would be told, enjoy them while you can because the day will come when they will leave you. Now it’s our friends telling us the same about our parents.
Wonderful pictures – I do like your captions as well though!
Thanks, Lois! One of my favourite pockets on earth (and what used to be our family’s annual holiday destination growing up) 🙂
Happy New Year to you dear !
Many best wishes !
May You enjoy the Best Health, Pure Happiness, True Relations, Sweet Memories, Success and Peace in the moments of life !
(I am so sorry It’s too late, hope you’ll forgive me)
No problems at all – there is no late in the blogosphere as far as I’m concerned! Thank you for your New Year wishes – I am only just now back from holidays, so I am catching up. Sending you love, peace and happiness for the year ahead 🙂
Thank you for your kind wishes…have a lovable,successful and happy time!
