ABC Wednesday - C

Continuing ABC Wednesday on a Beatles' songs theme.

A few weeks ago we went to France with Daughter and Son-in-law. SiL was taking part in L'Etape, the amateur stage of the Tour de France. Part of the stage involved cycling up and through the Col de Tourmalet, the highest pass in the Pyrenees. When SiL did it, the weather was abysmal: freezing cold, pouring with rain and very poor visibility. A few days later we took him back up in the sunshine to see what he had cycled over. The photo is of Husband and me at the Col de Tourmalet, demonstrating Can't Buy Me Love (but for everything else there's Mastercard).

Cool C-Choice! Beatles is great! At the moment Hello, goodbye is my favourite song.

Ahh. Sweet. How fun to see you and hubby!! What an amazing place to be, too. Your son in law gets my admiration for attempting that grueling ride!!

What a lovely photo, Liz. I laughed at the Mastercard logo in the corner.

Great post as usual Liz
Has the Mastercard statement arrived yet? :-)

How far ahead have you planned the Beatles titles? I bet you are going to struggle with 'X'

Yes so true. I think we are just about finished paying for our holidays! Saving up for next year now!

Your picture should've been on the front cover of the single!! Perfect example.

Great post.

Thanks for the visit.

To answer your comment: No, the caterpillars are actually hard to find. Walking along they just seem to blend in with the vegetation. You wouldn't think so from the photograph.

Thanks again for the visit.
