A-Z Blogging Challenge 2025 - W is for Water and Wine

As I travel the world I take many photos that pique my interest, these could be lumped into a "peculiar category" ie. they are peculiar to my interests and may be different from what one usually sees in a collection of travel photos.

For the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge in 2025 my theme is Peculiar Pics. During April I invite you to join me for an online tour of Peculiar Pics from my digital albums. These will be sourced from my travels between April 2024 to March 2025.

Water and Wine have been on my mind since at school I learnt about Jesus' miracle at the Wedding Feast of Cana. Over the intervening years I have enjoyed many a fine drop of both these beverages. I managed a few sips in our travels last year.

  1. I drink more water than wine but a good wine is hard to beat. I bet you drank lots of H2O on your outback adventure.

    1. I try to drink lots of water, always have a source of water closeby. No wonder I need a large handbag.

  2. I don't think we have "bubblers" in the US. I love taking peculiar pictures, too!!

    1. Most of the bubblers we have in Australia are old.

  3. It's always water for me over wine. Your wine photos reminded me of the wine fountain I came across on the Camino, where wine was on tap in the street.
