East Sussex reporting ~ On the Groovy Globe Hunt
What a pair! Happy birthday and best wishes.
Annelisa from Words That Flow in Great Britain has been hot on the trail of peace globes for two days. Instead of leaving a quick comment on each one she visits, she's written a short description of her findings. She even had time to do a special birthday post for her friend, Julia, and write a spectacular poem found HERE called Peace For Children In Our Time. Many thanks to her and others around the world contributing to the hunt. These are her latest scoops on the groovy trail.
