Our day was nearing the end and I had been toying with the idea of splat painting since the morning. I decided our cold concrete garden wall was in need of colour so Georgie and I headed out, armed with paints, soft balls and a roll of paper. Warning: this is extremely messy. It involves paint. Splatting. If you are game anyway, of course you don’t need a concrete wall to begin. Tape some paper on the wall or hang a big piece of cloth that needs cheering up. The end result is so good and it was fun for both of us. I think we’ll be doing it again soon but this time with another batch of colours.
Exploring Vienna was supposed to be a secondary experience to the Pearl Jam concert my friend and I attended while there. But to be honest, we were blown away; enchanting, outstanding and absolutely worth a visit.

Shock! Horror! For a few seconds, I was confused. Was this OK?
