I am going to start with Elaine's award where I had to pick the 6th picture in the sixth folder.

This photo was taken on our last few days of our honeymoon in Hawaii and reminds me of the endless surprises and possibilities in life. Never in my life would I have thought I would travel half the world to visit these islands and these memories I will treasure forever. For the Kreative award I am tagging:

The next award is from Natasha one of the nicest crafters I am really pleased to have met on my blog. Thanks Natasha, your award has made me blush! It was really difficult to choose six peopl out of the many who inspire me. What I did was to open my Inspirational Blogs folder in my Favourites and tried to pick six. Would love to see you play along ladies and leave an inspirational trail for others to follow.

I've been tagged and I need to mention seven fascinating things about me. I don't know how fascinating they are but I'm gonna give it a try:

hmm, still thinking...

1. My parents were crazy about Carnival and every year they would make me and my sister costumes. My favourite was a peacock which won various prizes.
2. I managed to break a fountain with my temple (don't worry it wasn't that big)
3. I love reading and writing.
4. When still at primary school I used to go over to friends' without telling mum and she would go crazy with worry.
5. I love travelling and the furthest place from Malta I've been to is Hawaii.
6. My favourite city is London and would love to live there.
7. If I could eat lasagna without the consequence of doing it everyday, I would .
