The Diva dancing in Lisbon

The Diva's
Weekly Challenge #327: "The Diva dancing in Li sbonGuest Blogger Henrike Bratz

For this week's challenge I decided to use a pre-strung tan tile and try to fit Henrike's fragment Lisbon into triangles.
I missed the last challenge so added some 'Nzeppel circles to fill in the spaces.




Some photos of our travels in Thailand, enjoying the sights, sounds and colours of Bangkok and Chiang Mai.

We hired a scooter, worked our way through the traffic and ventured up over the mountains.

Scooter got a puncture, had to get a local mechanic to repair it!
