Wild Thing
This is one of my favorite spot in Victoria and it's only a 5 minute drive from our house. I totally miss living right by the ocean, and don't I remind you of the boy in Maurice Sendak's "Where The Wild Things Are"? Except I didn't sail away and ate enough fun stuff to party with life sized stuff animals.
Anyhoo, Sendak's book would have ended in Chapter 2 if I was the main character. I get motion sickness from spinning in circles, let alone sail away on a raft- I can't even handle the tea cup ride in Disneyland without going pukey after. True Story.

What a beautiful spot. Looks so silent too.
ReplyDeleteLove your jumper - you must feel warm and comfortable wearing it. xx
I wish I could enjoy such a view where I am but unfortunately I cant but I love it!

ReplyDeleteAdorable! Hubs got a Tumi down coat in Seattle - and it even has a tiny strip of (Canadian) Coyote fur on the hood! I told him to remove it before going into London - don't want to get pelted by Animal rights activists!
ReplyDeleteoooh lovely! At least you're missing some of the crazy cold weather in O town!
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures, you are gorgeous, and this park looks like heaven!

Hi Julie,
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting on my post, you're so sweet! =) You're beautiful in your pictures as well! That's pretty cool that you live 5 min away because it looks so nice, at least nicer than Long Beach!
Wow what a gorgeous location to take photos at! I love the new blog layout!
ReplyDeleteThat hat looks great on you! I wish I could pull it of but it always feels weird
ReplyDeleteHope 2012 is treating you fab :)

So I guess eating German food @ Busch Gardens and then getting on a ride immediately after would be a bad idea? LOL, honestly, that's a bad idea for anyone.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing the title, but before reading the post, my brain kicked into song lyrics, "Wild thing...." And after reading the post, I changed my mind--I think I could live there.
awwww, what great pics.
ReplyDeleteI love your hat! It's funny, I was going to buy a hefty faux fur coat yesterday but I thought I'd look like a character from 'Where the Wild Things Are' ; ) But you look so cute!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures!! Thank you for the lovely comment on my blog.
ReplyDeleteDo you have twitter?

ReplyDeleteI'm feeling OCD today, I HAD to finish the song lyric. =)
This makes me want to run away into the wild! Great hat, very cozy!
ReplyDelete"Wild thing...you make my heart sing..." Sorry I had to!

Gorgeous pictures! I love the connection to Sendak. One of my absolute favorite books.
ReplyDeleteJulie
you do look like a wild thing! did you like the movie? i thought it was weird. i get motion sickness too. when we went snorkeling in a little boat is was so NOT a beautiful thing. watching the waves crash while i sit on the beach however, is heaven.
ReplyDeleteI love this! And you're right I kinda am reminded of Where the Wild Things Are. I'm uber jealous of your blogging skills and fashion sense. Your pictures and concepts are just amazing!
ReplyDeleteChrissy @ Cosmetic Fixation
You always have the best backgound scenery! So cute and cozy and I adore that hat! Hope you had a wonderful New year my dear ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree with the previous post! you have the best background always! and add the wonderful style you have is perfection! i love how you style yourself differently everytime! i wish i could have locations just like yours to shoot :)
ReplyDeleteoh and you remind me of one korean actor UEE! you should google her and i bet people would agree you resemble her! <3
