Nature
So, How are You Travelling?
Alone, straight to your goal
or
in the company of others –
horizontal and relaxed?
Spring Equinox

Mezereum, spurge laurel or spurge olive

Architecture and Giant Amazons
Den Blå Planet (The Blue Planet) opened in 2013 in Kastrup, a suburb of Copenhagen. It resembles a whirlpool when seen from above, and was designed by Danish architects It covers a total of 12,000 m2 (130,000 sq ft), including the 10,000 m2 (110,000 sq ft) building and 2,000 m2 (22,000 sq ft) outdoors.
The Blue Planet contains about 7,000,000 litres (1,500,000 imp gal; 1,800,000 US gal) of water divided into 53 exhibits. In the first year of existence, the aquarium received approximately 1.3 million visitors – twice as many as expected.
Just as the architecture is special and artistic, so are the giant freshwater fish from the Amazon. Look at those metal scales…and the intricate patterns on its head. Arowanas.
Surely man can never compete with nature in architecture.
Travel theme: Creative
I am working on a photo book for my parents, and came across this old photo…Some years ago there was a competition about recycling milk Tetra Paks, and my son and daughter immediately wanted to participate. Here is what they came up with. Sowing together all these by hand…Emma wearing the dress and David photographing and editing.
Not very comfortable…but they almost won the whole competition – second prize in Sweden!
Being creative is always great fun – click here for more!
Thursday Thoughts about Den Blå Planet, Denmark
Living in a bubble…Usually I am happy to live in My Own Bubble, my little world where I can shut out all the wars and disasters in this world and focus on the good things in life.
Sometimes I am happy that others live in their bubble and I can watch them, enjoy their beauty…from a safe distance.
Bubbles are useful, aren’t they?

A woman – not passé even if she is ageing.
