Peru-Cusco
This week we’ve has new snow, lot’s of it, slush, and rain. It has been cold and I am so over winter and snow. Busy week at work and I have not taken any new photos
Then my son shared these…
Travel fever, that is what I have… I have not taken these photos, only edited. My son is traveling in Peru and he shared them from Cusco, often spelled Cuzco is a city in southeastern Peru near the Urubamba Valley of the Andes mountain range. It looks so beautiful…
Bridge
this month the #WordPrompt is Bridge, here is my contribution to the word.
The Bahia Honda Rail Bridge is a derelict railroad bridge in the lower Florida Keys connecting Bahia Honda Key with Spanish Harbor Key.
Lighthouse
We all need a lighthouse in our lives to lead us, whatever it is, a person, place or state of mind. This came to my mind as I saw all the news about mourning people for Prince Philip. I myself am not one to mourn for people I do not know.
I sympathise, with the person who has lost a loved one, but for me to get really emotional about some celebrity or public persons passing is unlikely to happen. That is just me.
Washing lines
I was commenting to Sue about her post Monday Washing Lines and mentioned I had few photos of wash hanging on lines in odd places. So here is my finds on this topic, what I recalled having easily available. I loved the image with the washing seen between the bell tower of the church in Ravello.

I was going to leave Capri, but I have to share more of the beauty I saw. I am in no hurry, the travel ban is not going to lift anytime soon. These small roads, ways, are shouting out – shoot me, that sounds bad, – take a photo, is more appropriate 🙂
Clouds over the mountain tops!

Visiting Villa San Michele in Capri , looking at the long pergola and the that garden begins in the shade of the wisteria of the pergola, culminates bathed in sunlight on the Sphinx terrace and finds its end along an elegant avenue of cypresses. Every season has its flowers and scents of camellias, tree peonies, hydrangeas, vines and orange blossom.
The sphinx at Villa San Michele is approximately 3200 years old. It comes from Egypt and is carved in red granite.

Visiting Villa San Michele in Capri , looking at Hermes
Where the sculpture loggia ends and the long pergola begins stands a bronze statue that somehow marks the transition between indoors and out of doors. It represents the messenger of the gods, Hermes, sitting at rest. The small wings on the sides of his feet are folded. The sculpture is a turn of the 19th century copy of an antique original which was excavated in Herculaneum and now stands in the Archaeological Museum in Naples. This work of art was a gift to Munthe from the City of Naples in recognition of his relief work during the cholera epidemic 1884-85. (text: villasanmichele.eu/collection)

Amalfi sunset
I had seen this post( below), but for some reason I totally forgot to respond.
Today’s invitation goes all the way to Finland, where Ritva is trying to survive the dark of a Scandinavian winter. Take us away to somewhere sunny, Ritva, and if you do, link or pingback to my post/blog. Or just enjoy my photo when it gets dark, Janet thanks, I did enjoy yours 🙂
walk on the way
I read this from sloppybuddhist and it struck the cord with me. I believe this to be true. So I thought I would share.
As you start to walk on the way, the way appears
Buddha
Both these have the some action already happening to something good to appear. This is why I keep writing these blog posts, maybe I will find the way to inspiration. My other favorite is:
Inspiration exist, but it has to find you working
Pablo Picasso
These both images are from our trip to Sri Lanka
Low tide
Memories of travels past – this is from out bugalow in Koh Yao Noi at low tide. It was like been at our summer house as it was as quiet. Hardy any tourists there at that time
Roof tops of Riga
Views from Terrace Riga over the roofs in Riga, sitting there I could see the whole views of Old Riga. Once again stating the obvious, that deteriorating building are picturesque. These photos are from several years back, but I came a cross these and thought I’d share them with you.
How to survive November 2020-29
Two more post for this November, this has passed so quickly! Thank you all for making it that happen, the comments and company. I am really at loss trying to come up with an idea for today.
Candles, they work as a mood enhancer so well. Together with shells from our travels they take me to the warm and sandy beaches we have visited, so looking forward to travel again, hopefully sooner than later.

Träskända Manor Park
We enjoyed a beautiful autumn Sunday visiting this lovely park, the history these trees could tell. There were people sitting by the trees or benches having a picnic, enjoying the low soft autumn light and warmth. Kids running around playing – so idylic.
I had my camera with me, but I forgot the card home so I had to take photos with my mobile. I have to say, the quality just is not the same as it would be with a camera, but you can still see that is is a lovely place to visit and only 20 minutes from home.
History and diverse nature meet in Träskända Manor Park. Manor Park is a nationally valuable cultural and historical environment and one of the oldest nature reserves in Espoo. Cultural-historical values are combined with the old noble forest of the manor park and several rare tree and shrub species as well as fauna. The manor environment also includes an exceptionally extensive and original landscape park.
We can learn a lot from trees: they’re always grounded but never stop reaching heavenward.
The construction of the manor park began as early as the 18th century, but the park got its modern look during Aurora Karamzin in the mid-19th century, when Träskända was one of the most magnificent manors in Finland.
Manor Park is a popular outdoor area and an important neighborhood for residents of the area.
Träskända Manor Park was designated as a nature reserve in 1961. Kartanpuisto is one of the most significant historical parks in Finland.
