Would you like to take part in a little Yellow Blog Hop?
Hope so!
Here's the list of blogs we're visiting today
Leonie (that's where you are now) ;)
and the theme is
Yellow :)
Kind of appropriate in my part of the world
as tomorrow is the first day of spring so lets hope there's nothing but yellow sunshiny
skies ahead.
Some Yellow trivia for you (most of which you probably know).
- The word yellow can be used as an adjective meaning cowardly.
- The ancient Maya associated the color yellow with the direction South.
- "Yellow journalism" is a term that refers to sensationalist journalism that distorts, exaggerates, or exploits news to maximize profit.
- In cycle racing, the yellow jersey – or maillot jaune – is awarded to the leader in a stage race.
- Originally in Rugby League and then later, also in Rugby Union, the referee shows a yellow card to indicate that a player has been sent to the sin bin.
Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, contains half of all the world’s known geothermal features.

What's your favourite Yellow song?
I chose one of mine and created a layout using the lyrics.
Hope all the yellow has brightened your day in some way,
hop over to the other blogs
