ABC Wednesday - A!



Got your dictionary out? You ready to play with the letters? It's that time again! ABC Wednesday is hosted by Mrs. Denise Nesbitt and the ABC team and we have new members to our team! Denise has added Annelie, Nathalie, Joyce, Donna, Helen and then, of course, us old guys -- well not literally, except for me -- Roger, Troy, Jay, Barb, Gattina and me! AND! this is the beginning of the seventh round! Is that cool or what? So, don't Abandon us now because today is the A day! Climb Aboard, don't feel Awkward! It's time for Action, I know it isn't April, but it will soon be August and there are lots of As just waiting to play!

A is for Apple, Apricot, Acapulco and Alpaca!



So grab your Accordion, play us a tune and get into the Action! You're an Adult now! And there's nothing Absurd About playing ABC!!

Pictures today are courtesy of Google Photos!

You are a clever alphabetican (new English word!)and always knows the most words of the letter of the week. Have a great ABC Wednesday.

Alpacas aren't they wonderful! Our german shepherd Elsie has a certain Alpaca look about her! lol!

Beverley Baird said...

Love your mosaic of photos - great choices for A.
I just saw 2 alpacas on Saturday when we were in Twee. Sweet animals and they wwere so gentle. I even bought some wool for weaving!

Ciao Sylvia,
le albicocche sono i frutti che amo tantissimo !!
Docissime e tenerissime da gustare soprattutto in riva al mare :-))
Buona serata amica mia.

Carolyn Ford said...

What a cute cute mosaic! That apple looks so crisp and wonderful, and, how I would love to be in Acapulco! Have a great week, Sylvia!

MorningAJ said...

I love the alpaca!

Anonymous said...

The alpacas look so cuddly! I hope you have reason to use them again (larger) so we can see them up close!

Mara said...

The amount of wool those alpacas are carrying must be so hot! They could do with a nice trim!

Dani said...

WOW, those Apricots look so tasty.
Great choice. Never seen Alpaca, though.
Thank you.

Have a good night, Sylvia!

Gigi Ann said...

I'm new to the ABC Wednesday, so I think I need to try to be a bit more creative. Like that will ever happen! What a fun "A" post you have, I enjoyed reading it.

Dimple said...

Nice A's Sylvia! I haven't been to this meme much, I seem to draw a lot of blanks for words of the required letter! But when I saw the letter, and I already knew which picture I wanted to use this time, it just jelled.

Leslie: said...

Four great words and four great photos for our first day of Round 7!

Hildred said...

Lots of great A's, and nicely portrayed.

Gayle said...

The Alpacas are darling and your Acapulco photo just brought back memories of watching the cliff divers. It was so hot that day, but worth possible sunstroke to see them dive!!

Anonymous said...

Believe me these are "A's" I haven't seen in many a time. Please have a wonderful Wednesday.

Unknown said...

Oh my goodness. Those alpacas are the cutest things ever. : ) You always have the best ideas! I love seeing you on Wednesdays!

Anonymous said...

An eclectic selection of A's—all my senses have been touched. I can almost feel the softness of the alpacas.

Anything Fits A Naked Man said...

Alpacas!!! LOVE them!! "A" ROCKS!!!

Tumblewords: said...

Great gaggle of A's. I'm partial to Acapulco. Apples. Apricots. Alpacas. :)

Wanda said...

Love the collage you have made. One of the participants showed apricot jam, now you have my mouth watering with fresh ones....

Fun beginning for Round #7. So glad my friend Martha has decided to join us.

Jama said...

The apricot and apple looks so fresh and yummy! I don't mind having them right now.

Oman said...

an abundance of amazing A. awesome :)

Unknown said...

Dear Sylvia,
Thank you for your kind words.

I see that you were also thinking of fruit!
Apples are such a natural choice for the letter 'A'. I thought about 'Apricots' too, but decided to stick to apples when I went out to my garden. I made a very simple post this time. Otherwise, I often like to name lots and lots of words!

It's great to begin again with abc-Wed.! I missed the beginning of round 6, so I am glad to be able to start with A.

Best wishes,
Anna

For the benefit of other readers:
A is for Anna!

Kay said...

That sounds like fun. Do you know alpaca was the answer this morning that was driving me crazy. The clue was "looks like a llama" or something like that. I won't forget it now, I hope.

Reader Wil said...

BTW , my burglar story was partly made up by me. The end was not true.
Sorry...

Annelie said...

Hi Sylvia, great to be in your team!
Thank´s for the comment on my blog!

Unknown said...

we don't have alpaca here in the Philippines so i am wondering if these animals are nice to people lol. They looked so cute especially the white.

Happy ABCWED.

penny said...

Your Aces when it comes to A words and Awesome images, Sylvia.

Gattina said...

Alpacas are sooooo cute ! I have seen some in England.

Strawberry Jam Anne said...

Amazing A's and lovely pictures as usual. A x

Joy said...

A most adept and admirable collage. The alpacas might be a bit warm on the beach though they would look very cute.

Jay said...

Awwwww! Look at those silly looking woolly sweeties! Love the knees!

George said...

This is a great post to start a new round of 'ABC Wednesday'. I like your pictures and examples.

Cheryl said...

Thanks for the awesome welcome to Round 7! These are terrific.

Luckaa said...
