Summer garland


Sales started yesterday in France. I was there.
Finally, I bought a multicolored garland (La case de cous*n Paul)
... not selled off....
I don't know why I'm always attracted to garlands of light!

Corner view / 5 things about me


My five eyes 

I wear blue and green glasses

I'm shy

I don't like pictures of me

I like to laugh

London

We changed many opinions about our vacation this year.
First, we chose Iceland (a bit expensive for us this year), then Ireland, and after in Normandy (France) and finally it will be London! Hubby is going for work for a few days so why not follow him? ;)

Random weekend


A friend brought me chocolate from Russia I found the package was funny so I put it in a frame in the kitchen.


Impossible to eat in the yard this weekend, it was gray, windy and rainy sometimes ....



I bought a big bunch of mint on the market Saturday morning.
I love to make mint tea as my Moroccan friend learned to me.


Playing, playing, playing...



Shopping: sandals ... I wonder if I can wear them soon ... not sure!


Very nice cartoon which pleased to the whole family.

No photos today. It was the tennis club party where we play. So we played, ate and drank a little and played again...not easy to play correctly after the lunch ;)

Have a nice week!

Last reading


Four good reading with a slight preference for the novel full of poetry by Jón Kalman Stefánsson.

corner view / sights, special places of interest that aren't mentioned in tourist guides


This is not an exceptional sight, the interest of the place is limited,
but I guarantee you that this is not mentioned in tourist guides!
Welcome to my home ;)
I'm waiting for you to drink a cup of tea ... or aperitif with wine of the corner.

Happy june

At 5 am, there was a storm with a huge hailstorm.
I thought the roof windows will not resist! Fortunately yes!
My beautiful rose has lost a lot of flowers and leaves ...


I took these photos 4 hours after the storm and I think
some hailstones were still very large (though the temperature outside is very soft).

The plastic gutter near the terrace didn't resist.
Fortunately the main house gutters are made of zinc so they are not pierced!


I just checked the roof of our car and there are a few bumps .... aarrghhh!
J'adore this spring ....

Meetings











Photos taken at the Skansen park (Open Air Museum) in Stockholm 2 weeks ago where there are typical animals of Sweden (or not...).

In 2009, when I visited this park, I remembered the bears seemed cheerful and playing in the water. This time, the same. They climbed into the branches and playing in the water with a lot of energy.

When I saw the moose, I thought that nothing had changed since 4 years! He slept in the same place. Is he real??

The pig looks like... a (french) pig ... but I am not pig specialist either ...

And the cute leaping squirrel was my favorite even if he's not very "exotic"...

Here are some swedish meetings :)

Corner view / europe


Do you remember?  ;)

I chose the theme of this week, but finally I had no idea how to deal with it!
First, I remembered this hairy band .....
After that, I made a list of 27 European countries
to see how many countries I've never been.
Result: 17
So, many travels in prospect...I hope ;)

Freedom

Where is she going ?

What is she doing?

Our tiny garden is full of snails that eat strawberries and flowers.
Last week we filled a bucket with snails. After 1/4 h by bike, my daughter found the perfect place to liberate these snails!

Freedom for snails!

Corner view / somewhere else





On the Baltic sea in a boat, between Stockholm and Sandhamn island (5 days ago).
It seems already so long ...
