Recently my little toddler @littleblue and myself decided to take a walk every Wednesday, our day home together, and on weekends.

We have posted our otherwise mundane walks in the past.

We call them a
Fitness walk 💪💃
Nature walk 🐞🐛🌳🍃☀,
Mindful walk 🙏,
Treasure hunt ♻💎,
Fairy spotting✨,
Little library visit📚,
Spoto walk (spot the yellow car) 🚕...
And if it is raining like today. .. Puddle busting.
☔💧🌈

It's really just about breaking up the day, and getting out. I can't do much.

We go around a block or two.

This week I spotted a post by @tattoodjay announcing his Wednesday walk initiative.

How cool. A kiwi in New York going for a wander on Wednesday too.

Not only one guy, now I discover a whole steemit movement out walking on Wednesday!

We didn't get any puddle busting shots today.

On Wednesday, without even being aware of @tattoodjay's challenge to pick a feature of our walk to document, @littleblue decided to take pictures of his favourite letterboxes.

I know it's not Wednesday, but I have decided to just post when I can. I never manage to do them on the right day.

Needle work Monday
Tree Tuesday
Market Friday...

I am so well intended but I never do it.

Even my favourite weekly topics like the Steemit Vision quest #svq, poetry dice or art explosion . I just haven't been able to get it together.

So here is our letterbox stroll. Better late than never.

@tattoodjay has encouraged everyone to join, get out walking and use #wednesdaywalk to share your ambling through your part of the world.

The humble documenting of letterboxes proves you can find something to admire and share. Maybe try looking through the eyes of a 4 year old. They find magic in anything.

This one impressed him, for obvious reasons.
It's a little bit fancy.

But this understated original federation letterbox has it's own charm. Don't you think?

These shiny ones seemed to be a popular choice for the painted wooded fence folk.

This one is our favourite. Isn't it lovely, the fence too. Fabulous. We never pass this garden without sampling the lavender that grows through the fence round the corner.

This one! Out with the old and in with the new. It represents the inner Sydney gentrification and rezoning beautifully.
I'm glad they kept the old one too. They also maintained the post war era house too, which I much prefer to the suburban Mac Mansions.

There is nothing more honest and down to earth than a red brick block, even if not in original form.
It's not so impressive to the little guy, too much like ours 😂. We have been looking to move from a unit to a house for too long. He dreams of our very own letter box.

This is his favourite, this is what he desires. A dog and a letter box to honour them.

We also made it to the Little library.

Rather than take a book he donated for the first time.
This is a big deal for a kid, to give things away. Particularly anonymously, without the secondary gain of the gift's acknowledgement from the person who received it.

Important lessons.

Thank you so very much @tattoodjay.

You have legitimised my humble little weekly effort to do something with my bub.

My life is quite limited, but within that limitation I have learnt to appreciate people and the everyday experiences, rather than extravagant experiences that sometimes lose the intimacy you gain in stopping to just smell the roses.

Or indeed check out a rad digger.

Spoto!

Next week on our Wednesday walk we will be heading to Buddha's house.

The meditation centre down the road.

Just a brief stroll in the gardens, even the most zen person does not want us crashing their tranquillity.
