My iTunes: Stay With You by the Goo Goo Dolls
Thanks to Anna in her comment today on my post, I remembered that I had yet to show my front door in London. If you go back through my archives, I have this "thing" for doorways...the door, the landscaping, the knocker. In London there are so many different ones to see, take in and admire. I took a ton of door images (some of which I TOTALLY trespassed to take). I never did show my door. I guess it was for privacy issues but my husband pointed out that reason was ridiculous considering I was writing about my whole life (and his) on my blog! :) If you put all my posts side by side...you would have ended up at this door saying hello to me.
Good point honey. That is why I love you.
Anyway, here it is now that I am gone. Nothing fancy really but I love the blue. So pretty. I couldn't leave London without posting it. We moved twice in London although after we moved through this door, I felt like a lot of our life there started taking shape. Thanks to good neighbors, friends and a cafe down the street called The Doll's House it was looking more like home day by day.
Thanks Anna for the reminder! Have a great week everyone!

Hiya Anna :D Swing by from Chad's and what a beautiful shade of blue with that white it is a lovely contrast :D
I'll check out your door when I visit London again :)
The best door is your very own! Nice welcoming blue door Anna. Wonder what the neighbors will think of a door that color here in the States?
I love that electric blue, but it would never fly in my neighborhood! What color will your new door be?
I wish we had beautiful doors like that here! What better way to welcome someone into your home. Lovely photo.
It was a nice door... I like living behind it, too!
ah, we finally see....hope all is going well
What a beautiful door, anna.
I am sad that you left and we never got to meet. I enjoy your blog and your photos so much i was going to suggest we maybe met for coffee next time I'm in London.
However I'm so thrilled that you are back home where you belong. I loved my 3 weeks in CA recently; my friends there are like family and their home is truly a home from home BUT...I am relishing being back in my own place.In England. God bless you and your lovely family!
I'm assuming you didn't live on Downing Street.
You assume correct John although I walked by it many times! :)
Wouldn't it be great to see colors like that in the suburbs here in the US? Never happen.
I love the door!

Oh that's beautiful Anna, looking forward to seeing your new house!
Love the white rectangles against the blue!
I miss walking up to that door and confusing who ever it was that happened to answer the phone upstairs by saying "Hey! It's Anna."
That's a very beautiful shade of blue, Anna. A very nice door...and now you've left it behind.
LOVE the blue! And of course, your composition :)
Beautiful. Very appropriate to the subject matter of the past couple of days.
ooh, love the color. i also really like that you only needed to show part of it to get such impact. :)
Blue is my favorite color. I like that song too ;)
Notting Hill Blues!!! ;)
I love colorful walls and windows and doors....and this is splendid, Anna!!! :)
Love the blue and love this shot. It is so full of meaning. Doors can be the opening to new things or a final ending.
Hope you get settled soon and start on new adventures.
HI Anna,
I have been visiting your blog often. I really enjoy your posts.
Thanks for sharing!
What a beautiful door. The blue is amazing. As always, I love your composition.
Can't wait to see a picture of the new door, all the SUV's and other suburban marvels that make the US so lovely!
my favorite color! here's to new doorways! :)
The blue and white is wonderful. Bright and unique.

That would indeed be the Grimm's Dyke. I love that picture of Mira!
