Habits work through the senses – join in Cee’s challenge this week and find out more about yourself! I have chosen the positive alternatives: Good.

For more of this, click here.

Habits
Sense of Seeing – What delights visually.
Sense of Touching – What textures do you like to touch.
Sense of Hearing – What sounds do you like to hear.
Sense of Tasting – What tastes good (or bad) to you.
Sense of Smelling – What smells good(or bad) to you.

Seeing – Nature. Today’s Autumn colours

Touching – My dogs. Only Totti now.

Hearing – Bird song. Waking up to an early morning thrush.

Tasting – Wild berries like these blackberries, newly picked.

Smelling – Flowers like lavender, roses and honeysuckle

So what do these habits tell about me?

WPC: Beneath Your Feet

A very important thought as well – what is beneath your feet. Join in on WordPress and let us know!

Beneath my feet two days ago was a shimmering beach with happy, rushing and playing dogs. I enjoyed the lovely company of blogging friend Seonaid Green of breathofgreenair. (and her family!) Thank you for having us! Forever grateful.

My heart feels as light as the clouds when I’m watching her beautiful dogs floating on sand and water. Maisie, Willow and Mollie!

Travel theme: Wind

Ailsa’s theme this week is about Wind. As the wind has been fairly strong during the last weeks here, my contribution is from a walk with Totti on a small island near our summer house. Trees and grass and us on the move…

Totti, at least, is a fan of these strong winds. He turns his nose to the wind and – enjoys!

Kids and Cows on Mount Rigi

26 juli, 201526 juli, 2015 / Leya / 10 kommentarer

So, we are back to Mount Rigi. I promised Cows and Kids! At 8.30 a.m we went by car towards Seebodenalp. From Küssnacht a 7 km narrow and meandering road leading up to 1030 m where the starting point is for many walks. We entered the Panorama walk with stunning views over Vierwaldstättersee and the small villages of Küssnacht, Merlischachen and Luzern. An easy walk, but a hot one – 30 degrees C. Breathtaking views in the early morning light. We knew the Swiss to be pros on hiking and organizing walks, but we were still impressed by the standards of these, the informative signs and the facilities, Whenever a great view was offered, there were designed, wooden chairs or benches to rest upon. Here some of the big moraine stones typical for the area. The stillness in the air and the soft sound of cowbells followed us around the mountain. Sometimes I wondered how they could walk those steep hills – sometimes they even ran down them.

Hiking school classes were not unusual, and sometimes they reminded me of fairytales like Snowwhite, or maybe stories about Hobbits? When we caught up with them they were playing happily while one of their leaders was making a fire and looking after their things. Happy schooldays!

Before the turning point around the mountain, we had a glimpse of ”the real deal” – what was to come on our next hike. There is always something special about those snowcapped mountain tops. On our way back we met several fellow travellers – and spoke for a while with them all…

Some of them more friendly and talkative than others…

These people were fixing the roof of the house – which is a weather station for measuring the air quality here. A friendly shake of the bell around this pretty lady’s neck, and we were ready to leave this lovely area. I bet she knew it was a farewell shake!
