WPC: Names
When you take the Titanic Experience in Cobh, Ireland, you will be given a ticket with a real name on it. The name belongs to one of the passengers on board the famous ship. Through the journey, you will find out if you (i.e. the person in the ticket) lived or died.
Here is the ticket I was given and the fate of the person whose name I was given. I quite rather liked it. It made the whole experience fun, even though I was sad to find her sad story.
Looking for a view
A piece of art or a picture you say? Righto! Pop came these photographs to my mind. And since I will be on vacation for a fortnight I am scheduling it on Friday night (thanks Linda for the early prompt 😉 ) and I promise I will come back and check out your posts on this prompt later.
A scene at the Fota Wildlife park, Cork, Ireland.
Me: There is supposed to be a Panda bear here. Do you see him anywhere?
Friend: Nope… He might be hiding.
Searching the trees for a while. Almost at the verge of giving up when my friend points me to the tree above.
Friend: There…do you see him? (Points above in the trees)
Me: I only see the tree leaves…Damn..I shouldn’t have removed my zoom lens and packed it in. (It was getting very cold, windy and there was a slight drizzling of rain too at that time)
Friend: Look behind those leaves…
Me: You mean this one?
Friend: Yes.
(Panda : God…won’t she leave me alone in peace?)
Me: Let me try a little bit from here. Might get a good view.
Me: Damn… Why can’t I get the focus right!
(Panda: Still not going to pose for you lady…Why do you think I climbed up all the way here… Go away!)
Me: I will try one more shot and then we will leave him to his sleep
Me: There! Finally! It can’t get any better than this. I am happy with this view. Come on, let’s go.
(Panda: eye roll)
