We were at the sunny beaches of Cabo San Lucas

They filmed the battle scenes in the movie Troy here

Mazatlan

You told us to take a walk through the streets of old Mazatlan

so we did

We wondered if you walked the same streets as we did

and took pictures of the same views as us

 

were you here?

Puerto Vallarta

We were in Puerto Vallarta searching for something

We needed to find it so desperately… you and I

We walked around the coastal heat… sand and dust

sand and dust

Is there a demi god somewhere who can help us?

Perhaps there is an angel somewhere…

but it was not to be

we walked and walked

How do you lose something you have never found?

Bali – a noir recount of our journey

Posted in LCA, alcohol, black and white film, holiday, hotel, life, lomo, love, memories, photo, photography, photos, travel with tags , , , on July 29, 2008 by The little girl who almost became the Oracle

we booked a cab to drive us to the airport

we waited at my void deck

it was my birthday. i had spent the bulk of the night before staring at myself in the mirror

watching myself leave my 20s behind

we sat next to a lone traveler on the plane

was he going to bali on holiday? did he have a south east asian love child to vist?

was he there to escape?

we arrived at denpasar airport.

there was a scare – we thought we had lost j’s luggage

no matter.the luggage was found.

the journey

continues

we ended the day with a bottle of champagne.

i had by then forgotten that it was my birthday.

at this point, my black and white hungarian film ran out

we spent the rest of the holiday in colour…

we were there the fall of 2005

we drove past rodeo drive

and stayed at the w hotel san francisco

where did all that time go?

the beauty of route one

still warms my heart

and makes me want to return

to be reminded of how huge the world is

and the possibilities that open up to you underneath the sheltering sky

is exhilarating

to be reminded that there are still so many places to go

and things to do

and to know that “life is a constant journey ahead” is not just a metaphor

new york

where i smelt the burning

and watched the living live

 

just one more

one more

one more

reason

to return
