Sunday Post #415



I read a book this week! Is it possible the reading slump is over? I certainly hope so.  

This week in walking tours we have a nice night tour of Yokohama and a look at Seoul. I like how the Seoul video starts with music and highlights- you can get the highlights in the first couple minutes if you don't want to watch the whole thing.              



Song of the week

    Pirates of Venus sound interesting. Is it an inter-galactic adventure, or some other lost land?

    Isn't it awful to be in a reading slump? I haven't been in one, but have been to busy to really read.

    Here's to defeating book slumps! 📚📚📚

    I'll listen to the music with dinner. I loved the Blue Turtle music from last week. I followed their channel. 🎶

    I need to find time to watch some of those Seoul videos. 🎐

    Have a wonderful new week! 🌞

    Reading slumps can be a pain-in-neck, especially when there are books piled up everywhere. Or maybe that's just me?

    Good for you! All it takes to get out of a slump, sometimes, is reading that first book.

    Speaking of coconuts, I saw an awesome recipe with one this week(lol) Yay to getting back into reading, Gorgeous Greg!! I just finished up an awesome suspense novel by Don Bentley, and now I'm into The Cellist by Daniel Silva, another thriller. Deep down, I clearly want to be a spy.(lol) Hope you're doing well, and please stay safe. Sending lots of hugs, RO

    Okay... So which book did you read?

    I've actually been to Yokohama! About 8 years ago for a Kumon Conference. Don't ask me what it looked like now! I can only remember how terribly scared I was going all by myself. LOL!! But Japan is lovely.

    Have a good week Greg!

    My reading is wearing off on you?? Of course I didn't read this week so maybe we swapped lol

    I still have to watch the last two eps of Panic but have you seen The Great on Hulu? Kevin and I binged it all this week and it was wacky and fun. I think you would like it.

    I hope you're over your reading slump, Greg. It's so hard for someone who loves to read to not feel like reading.

    I hope you're reading more this week and having a good week.
