Rinda's Round Up (The End of the Hunt)

I love Autumn. It's my favourite time of the year. But for Autumn to begin, summer must end: and with that Rinda's Summer Scavenger Hunt draws to a close. It's tempting to say that it's more fun every year; but that wouldn't be quite right..because it was a brilliant idea right from the start and summer just wouldn't be summer now, without a bit of scavenging.

Here are my round up photos. I didn't get quite finished, but I don't mind in the slightest. I've enjoyed every minute of the hunt and I loved seeing what a worldwide team of scavengers has discovered.


I have:
- a Fisherman: through a shop window in the Belgian seaside town of Blankenberg

- an outside market on a bright Sunday morning in Helsinki

- a police car, through the tour bus window, in Helsinki again

- a fence, again through a bus window, at the docks in St. Petersburg. A reminder of the city's recent past.

- and a theatre for the performing arts in Tallinn: for their Song Festival. I cropped this one so that I could keep the view of our cruise ship in the left.

Roll on next year, Rinda, and thank you!

    The theatre looks like a very impressive building and your fisherman is so cute.

    Your fisherman looks very... european. Does that make sense? Love the pictures, it has been an adventure hasn't it?

    Great fisherman! I love that even though some people have finished and some haven't that everyone has enjoyed doing this, the taking part and the fun of searching for the items.

    Oh I love your fisherman photo! I only got about half finished. I'm hoping to do better next year because it really is so much fun and it gets us out and about more.

    My favorite in this series of photos is the fisherman. What an unlikely surprise! I've really enjoyed seeing everyone's "finds" this summer.

    Love that fisherman! But what on earth was he advertising? They look like perfume bottle boxes around him. Eau de fish?

    It's true, summer wouldn't be summer without photo scavenging. You still managed to get some lovely shots, Sian.

    Very cool fisherman, and I agree, even those of us who didn't get them all had the fun of adding a little variety to our camera clicking.
