welcome back

Welcome back me, and welcome back blogging.
It's been a little quiet here at Rain or Shine, so where have I been? America. Land of the free. My husband and I took probably one of our last big trips for a while. We had an amazing time, part of it shared with some great friends, and part of it just the two of us. We ventured from Newport (Rhode Island), to Boston, to New York, to LA, to San Francisco, to Vegas, and then a quick detour to Canada on the way home. Not only was it a great travelling experience, but I also discovered some inspiring american design and art. And in true American style, every piece of art was inspired from another part of the world. I tried to capture as much inspiration on camera as possible, and soon I will post my favourites of "American-design". For now, here's a snippet of our travels, captured in one photo for each amazing place:

Newport (in front of the Newport Bridge with the girls!):


Cape Cod (the beautiful scenery of Provincetown):
Boston (the architecture of old and new):


New York (fifth ave):


LA (dining on Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills):


Venice Beach (the most colourful of places, Ocean Front Walk markets):


San Francisco (colourful homes of Haight Ashbury):


Vegas (the Excalibur Casino at sunset):


Grand Canyon (lunch with a view):


Sun Peaks, Canada (with our best friends D & J @ Lake Louise)
