Pink, blue, purple and white!

Hello Friends,

Before I start cooking and baking for the weekend, I went out in the garden with Bandit.

All week the weather was cold and rainy so I did cleaning, laundry … inside and I did not see the Rhododendron in full bloom! I was looking many times and there was nothing, so surprise when I went to have a look in their corner of the garden! The Azalea will soon be all bright pink!

I love pink!

Apple trees flowers.

This bush is at the garden entrance with a white Hydrangea and mock orange bush ( not sure of the name) it is all white and has a very nice smell. It will be soon blooming with the lilacs . ( don’t remember the name of this bush on the picture ?)

I live Wisterias!

So romantic!

We call it “Mary’s heart”

 The peonies take time to be in full bloom, due to bad and cold weather.

Well I have better go and cook! And will visit your blogs in between! I wish you a lovely weekend!

 Hello Friends,

This was last year’s photos end of April and this year nothing 

Has come out yet!! Too cold

You know the book about the places you must see in your life,

This one is certainly in the book!

But for me I had to absolutely see it!

The boat you see on the picture was our’s.

We flew from Paris to Copenhagen and then embarked on the cruise boat and sailed on the Norwegian coast. We went to Geiranger the place I wanted to see once in my life!

This is a beautiful view of the fjord , I should say a fantastic view!

While on the boat we saw lots of fjords, cascades...

Then a place I liked was Stavanger with it’s narrow streets and little white houses.

Then, a very nice place was Bergen.

We took free time and went to have lunch on the fish market.

We visited the old streets with it’s wooden houses, I enjoyed it very much.

This is our boat. I am not very fond of cruises nowadays, too big boats, too many people. The first one I did was in Greece a long time ago now and the size of the boat was reasonable and it was a very friendly atmosphere on board.

This is my point of view....

Norway and Denmark are beautiful places to visit. Before the pandemic we had the project to go to Norway but this time rent a car a visit by ourselves.

The cruises allowed us to see the coast and see places we would like to go back to visit.

I will continue to dream about my travel to Norway! 

And I wish you a good week end.

This was the four of us on our first cruise.... a long time ago!!!
