Melli's Alphabet Challenge, W and X

Wednesday again, time for Melli's Alphabet challenge.
One more week to go after this one, we're doing W and X this week.
W was not that easy to find, or maybe I was not looking in the right places?
These are all from my last trip to Bruges again, but I only discovered that I had them when I was browsing through my archives!
It"s upside down, but it's a W !




And if you look well, there's one on the right side of this picture as well. It's on it's side in the green Buxus hedges? Had I known it was there, I would have composed the picture slightly different, but it's in there all right!
But what I did notice when I took the pictures, was the dragon bench!
It was already past the S week, but I snapped it anyway.
It's my bonus for Melli! ANOTHER DRAGON FOR MELLI!!
I miss chasing dragons, does it show?


As for X .... well, I had a ball!!
I found so many I had to make a collage ...


And now I'm off to Melli's!
Can't wait to see what the others will come up with!

  1. Wow! All your Xs are X-raordinary! I spotted both of your Ws without having to be told, and that S dragon is just too cool!

    You are our official overachiever.

  4. I really like the hedge with the "W" that is TRULY a 'natural' part of the alphabet.

  6. Wow, those are all so great! Love the W in the hedge! And those dragon benches are just too cool. I love all the Xs, too -- what a neat variety. I should have made a collage -- I found many more Xs than Ws as well.

  7. Don't the belltowers and the peaked roof make a 'W', as well?

  8. Now the funny thing about your first W photo is that I didn't even NOTICE the upsidedown W until I read your words! I noticed the W that ISN'T there - the one created by the two turrets with the peak of the roof inbetween! And I like THAT W even MORE that the upsidedown W!!! LOL!

    Could you just steal one of those benches and mail it to me? I'm sure they'd never miss JUST ONE... I LOVE them!

    And windmills for X's! How LUCKY you are!!! They're all great!

    @ Gattina: I would hope not!
