Not a limo...





... but it provided a less conspicuous mode of transport for Alice, stowing away in search of sunshine. She'd have been shaken to bits and flung about and entirely lost in a limo. And besides, south London is not overwhelmed with such luxury transportation.

A suitcase would have to do. A suitcase, a train, and - if she'd picked well - maybe even a plane.

The blank suburban windows gazed at her as she slipped into the suitcase pocket's darkness and heard the rush of the approaching train...




...to be continued, either here or there.


Not a limousine.
Not quite a proper Theme Thursday - do you think this counts?

I'm not sure I do, but I'm hoping to get away with it.

Lynne said...

Letty, are we embarking on The Adventures/Travels of Alice or was this just a one time post? It reminds me of Pod and the toy horse he photographed in various scenarios. Very pod-ish! Very clever!

Just think of all the spots around London where Alice could go!

Giulia said...

Lettuce,

I'm not part of TT but...I say, yes, you definitely get away with it. I love Alice & this is marvellous. Look forward to seeing more (some day)? xoSusan

Lynne said...

Kat Mortensen said...
