This is the final part of my 3 Days, 3 Quotes challenge and I’d like to say a big thank you to The Happy Traveler for my nomination. If you’ve enjoyed it and would like to join in, please feel free to do so. And now for my six words…
Where does your heart lead you?
Inevitable that it should be the Algarve, don’t you think? But maybe not so inevitable that it should lead to the Weekly Photo Challenge?
Hope you have a happy Saturday and a great weekend! Don’t forget to call in on Cate. See you on Monday for another walk?
Ahh…life is full of wonderful surprises isn’t it? Love it when the Weekly Photo Challenge gives us just the right prompt… and I would have been more than surprised if you hadn’t given us these gorgeous photos of the Algarve after your six word question Jo 😉 Had to be, just had to be…and so gorgeous as always…and another wonderful quote ❤
I quite enjoyed myself with these quotes, Sherri 🙂 And it gave me the opportunity to use up a few random photos that I liked. What’s not to like? Hugs, darlin’. Thank you for spending so much of your valuable time with me.
Always Jo, always… 🙂 xx
No surprise that your heart leads you to the Algarve, Jo. Another wonderful quote. 🙂
Does your presence here mean that you’ve just posted, Cathy? I’m very easily distracted these days 🙂
No, Jo, I haven’t posted anything lately! I don’t know why; I seem to be stuck. I still have much to post from Myanmar, and now from Philadelphia, plus some other things I want to write. I spent three hours on Thursday rewriting my query letter for my novel only to have it revert back to almost its original content! At least I did manage to send it to another agent. I want to keep working on that, not attending real estate broker meetings when my intention is not to join them anyway!! I need to learn to say no!! 🙂
It’s all very energy sapping, isn’t it? Somebody’s stolen my get up and go. I think it must be you 🙂 🙂
Haha, I might have stolen your get up and go, because I have a real shortage of it myself right now! xxx
lovely quote and gorgeous photos, Jo! 🙂
My happy place! 🙂 Thanks, LolaWi!
I’ll show you in a bit 😉 I love the first one.
Promises! Promises! 🙂 Just joking, Paula. I’ve just been sent another walk to add but will be publishing very soon. Monday hugs!
Beautiful photos Jo that took me right there. Hope you had a lovely weekend.
As always, I’m looking forward to going back, Miriam. 🙂 Thanks! Hope you have a good week.
Thanks Jo, and you too.
Oh that question hit me… “Where does your heart lead you”. Just last evening I was thinking of heading out on a one month trip to where the heart wants to go. If only work permitted…
There’s the rub! 😦 But I’m retired and still can’t quite flit off at will. Just trying to be happy in the moment. Where to next? 🙂
Ah, the commitments in life that hold us back! 🙂 Finding a trip into Eastern Europe again, if I can manage it…
I can hear and feel the beat of your heart in these lovely photos Jo. When do you go back again?
13th April just for a short visit, Pauline, because then I’m off to Poland with Dad for his yearly visit. Soon be here and I’m looking forward to having my daughter home at Easter first. It’s ages since she’s been up here. 🙂 Have a happy week, hon!
Sounds like a busy and happy time coming.
Gorgeous photos and easy to see why your heart would lead you here!
Thank you! 🙂 Yes, I guess it’s a full scale love affair.
Some beautiful photos as always Jo. Makes me feel warm on a cold winter’s day.
Thanks very much, Denzil 🙂 I won’t be sorry to go back- that’s a fact!
Lovely photos. The heart knows best.
They make me smile every time I look at them, Draco. 🙂 Thanks for your lovely comment.
My heart leads me to wherever my family is. ☺
A very natural response, Mlissabeth. Hope you’re having a good weekend together. 🙂
Inevitable that this is where your heart should lead you. I think you’ll find you have linked to a daily prompt and not the photo challenge, but hey what does that matter, I suspect that Tavira is a place of harmony for you anyway. Hope you are having a good weekend. I’m relaxing. So tired! Will start again on Monday. And try to get another walk finished tomorrow for you 🙂
Hiya sweetheart 🙂 🙂 I did think that link was a little strange! I copied it from Mirth and Motivation’s post quite late on Friday. Serves me right for being a clever clogs 🙂 In so far as I can ever be a harmonious person, yes it is, Jude. 🙂 Busy weekend, with heaps of laundry, etc. I was fed pad thai last night to keep my strength up and early Mother’s Day treat. Chocolates today! Will save you one 🙂 Mick has taped the boy’s car back together most inelegantly, but it will do the job while he’s waiting to get it assessed/fixed. ‘Walk’ when you can, hon- no worries. Sending Sunday hugs!
You should NOT be doing laundry today. I forbid it! And yes, please save me a chocolate, it appears that no-one bought me any 😦
(but I do have a very sweet little cherry tree for the new garden)
Too late! I’ve just finished the ironing. Just got to pack for him and I’ll be almost done. Choccies not opened yet but imminent. Still full from lunch. Do you have a favourite in Thornton’s Continentals? 🙂 Awwh, a cherry tree- that’s sweet!
she obviously thought a lot about it. And I’m not fussy about the choccie as long as it isn’t coconut. Thank you.
Lovely idea! 🙂 I like the Alpini best. Oh, dear- I just looked in the box. James ate the last one 😦 He’s just set off back for Leeds. If he’s not full now he never will be 🙂
Lovely quote! ☺
I like it too 🙂 🙂
I was right first time! I guessed your heart would lead you to the Algarve before I looked at the pictures. 🙂 I’m undecided about where my heart would lead me – so many lovely places…
Ok- I’ll follow you, Elaine! I like a surprise 🙂
I’ll let you know when I am ready to go! 🙂
My heart leads me to cross the Indian Ocean…but The Algarve will be tips on my list there after. Beautiful images as always
I know, Lisa! I’m hoping and praying that your wishes come true. 🙂 You never know when that skipper of yours will have a change of heart.
😀 Thank you Jo for your prayers and support. Exactly the messages I needed today 🌈
Beautiful Jo! Hope you are doing well! Love all your pictures from your trip. 😌
Thanks, Nicole- I’m good! 🙂 Just been fed pad thai. It’s Mother’s day here tomorrow and I’ll be cooking as usual, so it was an early treat.
Wonderful Jo! I LOVE Pad thai! mmmmm. Happy Mother’s Day!
Great quote, Jo. Love your Algarve photos. I could very willingly be led there right now. 🙂
Anything to escape the dustpan and brush, Ad! 🙂 🙂 Thanks, darlin’!
lovely quote and as always stunning photos!
Cheers, Kathe! Sorry about the mix-up 🙂
Stunning, Jo! I had a difficult time moving past the first photo…it’s spectacular!
It’s another of those good spots to sit, Jill. Now, if Jude was still doing benches… 🙂 Thanks, darlin’. Happy weekend!
I am sitting here with a big smile. We live in our blue house and my kitchen is painted blue (white cabinets). I was looking for a back-splash behind the stove and I was thinking about tiles, but couldn’t make up my mind. Now, after looking at the tile pictures of the fisherman, I know what I want…I just have to find something similar.
Great pictures…I am ready for vacation.
I can recommend the Algarve, would you believe? 🙂 And tell you where to find your tiles! Thank you 🙂
“.. go all with your heart”, what a great quote to share, Jo! I love your photos of Algarve, such a beautiful place via your lens. Happy weekend! 🙂
Thanks, sweetheart! My lens doesn’t lie 🙂 Hope you’re having a good one!
My heart leads me to grab every moment ❤ and I'm pretty sure that will be back to Tavira one day! Happy weekend babe!
That sounds like a great impulse to me, Gilly. 🙂 Go grab!
There are so many beautiful places to visit & experience. I hope to see many more n the years to come but when it comes to my happy place, it is surrounded by my family at home. Cheers my friend, have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks, Lynn. 🙂 One of the joys of the Algarve for me is that I have a lovely circle of friends there, and I can take my family with me. (If they’re good! 🙂 ) Happy weekend to you, sweetheart!
Happy weekend, Jo! My heart tends to video, photo, writing and many traveling through your wonderful posts!
I guessed! 🙂 Thanks for traveling with me, Ann. Have a great weekend!
Thank you, Jo!
I don’t believe this! That quote is my tag on my new 12monthsinwarsaw blog! Three great minds – yours, mine and Confucius! I love the quirky way you follow a lead and that first photo is wonderful – perfectly composed. Not that the others aren’t!
Ah-ha! You’ve got the blog sorted! Anything on there yet? 🙂 It’s a funny old life, isn’t it? I seldom look at quotes because there are so many and some are so trite! But there’s a world of wisdom out there and who am I to argue with you and Confucious? 🙂 🙂
Blog goes live on 12th – if I remember to in private it before I leave.
I’ll nudge you! 🙂 When’s your last day in Australia?
10th – I’m trying to find how to go public now! It’ll just be empty till 12th
Oh heck! You’ve nearly gone! I’m missing you already… but looking forward to having you settled in your new home. I’m expecting regular Polish lessons, you know 🙂
Lovely post, so many nice places and patterns with details.
Hi Lena 🙂 Yes- that’s the Algarve for you 🙂 Not that I’m biased, of course! Well, just a little bit 🙂 Thanks a lot, and happy weekend to you!
We would call it “The heart’s place”….
And there was where your heart led you…!
Moving!
Sleet and hail up here this morning, Anna 😦 I think I should move, don’t you? 🙂
Your spiritual home.
It is! 🙂 Happy Saturday, Viv!
