Weekly Photo Challenge : Shine

I am walking among the shops at Spain’s most popular flea market, El Rastro in Madrid, when something flashy catches the corner of my eye. I quickly turn my head before I miss the source. There she sits, unperturbed by the throngs of admirers, vainly showing off her stash of jewellery that shine like stars in broad daylight.

2014 favorites

2014 has been a super year for Sunny District. It’s been fun & happening. I’ve been able to share some excellent experiences, travelling stories and cool experiments. Here’s a quick round-up of some of my most popular posts from the previous year, in no particular order. And along with it comes a big thank you & lots of hugs for my readers!

I started sharing a new ‘Adventure‘ category with my readers & you certainly liked my skydiving story.

I was lucky to travel to many awesome places like Kiruna, Mallorca, Copenhagen, Athens, Santorini, Madrid, Lisbon & Porto. Although I haven’t had a chance to share my accounts of all these lovely places, but you can click on the links to read about the ones I have. I guess you liked this recent bright mash-up most of all.

I gorged on some fantastic cuisines while on my trips; my trip to Madrid seems to have been most inspiring.

I didn’t exercise my green thumb too much this year, but my herb garden did draw some accolades from you. Thank you!

Thankfully I made time to keep up with my reading, and my favorite book this year, as well as your favorite account was The Book Thief.

Thank you once again, dear readers, 2014 has been so awesome, I am raring to go for 2015!!
