Still, I liked it. Because it's mine. And, I put little "travel secrets" throughout the book. I mailed it off to the Brooklyn Museum of Art with just a week to spare. Whew! (wipes brow and sinks into the couch for a nap).
Cover Page
This is the intro page.
I love this picture because it shows just how much I love to travel
despite whatever weather I may be facing.
Paris
Places in Paris I love. ♥
London
Feeding the pigeons in Hyde Park.
Rome
Bavaria
Hallstatt, Austria
The C2C
Hadrian's Wall Trail
The Herriot Way (I had lots of help on this page by the kitten walking into paint and then onto my page! Not to mention constantly trying to chew the corners up and eat the pens)
Cumbria Way
Rio de Janeiro
Somerset
Stonehenge
Venice
Closing page
I will sign up again this year because I proved this time around that with even just two weeks, I can get something onto the page. :) As always though, my hope is I will have lots of time to work on it. :)

Laura, you did an incredible job! The artwork is beautiful, the stories soo cute and I love all of your little tidbits. I wish that I had a copy of this for myself! I would totally buy a watercolor travel book done by you. I'll have to tell you about my not so pleasant bird feeding experience in Covent Garden when I see you next month ;-)
I was going to leave a long comment here, but I think Phoebe summed it all up! Great art, great travels, great memories, great tidbits and secrets (I didn't know you were blessed by PJPII!), and a great life story! I can't wait to travel with you!!
