Forever

RDP Tuesday: Nostalgia

My Grandfather and my Great Aunt were both born in Victoria BC.

Surprise! My Grandfather was Canadian!

Every spring or early Summer we would take the Princess Margarite up to Victoria and we would buy loads of French Pastries ( once upon a time there were the BEST  Bakeries in Victoria and I swear that the Petit Fours looked like works of art, they were so pretty! ) We would visit the Wax Museum and the Gardens- I loved our trips up there.

I’ve gone back of course and even though the Bakeries are no more, it’s still my favorite place to visit.

I’ve selected some pictures that I took at the Royal Museum because they perfectly capture the sense  my sense nostalgia for a  place that has a special place in my heart.

One of my most favorite places to visit on the entire planet is Victoria BC, Canada- and the first place I go is to the Miniature World Museum. I’ve been in love with this museum since I went to Victoria as a little girl- and I still am crazy in love with it.

It wasn’t the cuteness of the miniatures that intrigued me- it was the detail- every small detail that caught me and fed what I learned later was my writer’s eye and in turn my writer’s voice.

In no particular order are some exhibits that I have caught my eye- each small piece each minute  has a story to tell.

Can you see them too?
