WordPress – textures this week. How about one mostly natural and the other manmade…
The same…but different…
Memories
Thursday’s Special: Slow
Paula, at Lost in Translation, asks us to post on something slow…This giant from Galápagos is…certainly slow, but awe- inspiring in so many ways.
WPC: Unusual
Unusual…well, my daughter spotted this unusual grave decoration when we visited the beautiful Highgate Cemetery, London. The much loved author Douglas Adams’ fans leave their most precious pens in the pot. Of course we did as well. We are all only Hitchhikers here, aren’t we…
Travel theme: Heat
If you could send some warm days over here it would be nice…but the Heat from me to Ailsa is staying in Rotorua, New Zealand.
Travel theme: Flavour
Mmm…Flavour for Ailsa. I give you my mango and strawberry cheesecake!
Travel theme: Tidy
Gdansk harbour – tidy it is. I guess a harbour has to be – otherwise chaos would be upon us. I only wish my desk was as tidy …
Early Morning Kilkenny
We woke up early to take a morning walk in Old Town Kilkenny before breakfast. Kilkenny is one of Ireland’s most beautiful towns, and has been of importance since the 13th century – it was even the capital of Ireland a long time ago.
Eight degrees only, but silence and sunshine. A very pleasant walk.
Warning – slippery because of the butter maker’s
Kilkenny Castle, 12th C
Thursday Thoughts – A Goodbye
Summer it is, and I just have to visit The Garden of My Dreams – maybe for the last time. The old couple owning it, will sell it this summer. If it is not already sold… To sneak in is maybe wrong, but somehow I just have to… say goodbye.
Every year I have talked to the little man and his beautiful wife, about all their travels throughout this world to collect plants, and about the birds he kept ringing every spring.
Some of my favourites are still in flower, and if you follow me through the garden, I will show you some of them. My absolute favourites are the thistles, so they will need a picture of their own. I hope you will enjoy the flowers just as much as I do.
Travel theme: Abroad
Abroad means many things to me…but if I were to choose only one thing – it is Freedom.
Walking Botanical Gardens is a pleasure I never can get enough of…
No matter how large or small – I just have to visit. These pictures are from Dublin.
