Have suitcase, will travel!

Rucksacks and suitcases and bags and boxes!! These can appear on a caketop for lots of reasons... Perhaps the happy couple are being married abroad, or maybe they just generally love to travel. Maybe their romance bloomed after they bumped into each other while exploring the starry steppe of outer Mongolia! (The webmaster and I are still intrigued by the Google analytic stat of a 'hit' on the website from Ulan Bator).

Whatever the reason, luggage has appeared on caketops all year round and in lots of colours. I quite enjoy making rucksacks and those wheelly suitcases with handles, and I like putting labels on but so far no one seems to want to have their air-ticket in their hand. Is that because we all use e-tickets these days?!



My near neighbours Matt and Jenny are no strangers to luggage, they run Invergarry Lodge, a lovely hostel popular with tourists and those folks who like to climb mountains. Matt and Jenny climb mountains themselves and have some super photographs on thier website and blog of many the local peaks, and some further afield. Matt is a bit of a creative type too, so check out his website Invergarry Gallery which has just gone LIVE! And wish them good luck, as they're getting hitched in March and shall be packing for an adventurous (and slightly chilly) honeymoon!

    I like your puns ("crocs away", "I'll be with you phesantly") they really do put the icing on the cake!
