It took me about a week to recover from my trip to Kansas City, Missouri for the RT Booklovers Convention. I put this down to working whilst I was away rather than holidaying, so that missing sleep while travelling kind of did me in. Then I went to a party, then I got a bug (it was a bug, not a hangover) and now I’m just about catching up. So, late but I hope still fun, are some of my pix.

Kansas City is known as the city of fountains. This was my favourite. Frog spitting on boy or boy peeing on frog?

Wow! No wonder it took you a while to recover. It must have been such a great experience. Fantastic photos.
I wonder why I’m humming ‘Robert De Niro’s Waiting’? 😉 xx
