Saturday Play

Hope you are having a playful Saturday. I'm afraid this is my play for the day. I have been very sick with a bad cold on top of my chronic illness, so I am pretty weak. But I hope you enjoy these as much is I did. I'm listening to some Hans Zimmer music as I work.

Multi-view of Bonn Germany.


This is actually a small note card sent by a friend a while back, but I wanted to include it. I really like the design on the front.


Sweet ducks from Japan.


Bell flowers from Russia, but I do not know the translation of the poem.

Small Pile, Lots Of Variety

Here's the latest!

Rooster and hens, from Germany. I don't know why I like chickens so much - but I do!


Sandpipers from Germany - sweet!


Death of a Saguaro - sent to me by my Arizona friend. It was struck by monsoon lightning and is being eaten by bugs. It won't be long before the whole thing falls over. As he said, an undignified death for a 150 year old cactus!


Chinese Opera Singer, Hua Dan - a very active character.


Sinterklaas, celebrated on 5 December. He brings children toys from Spain.


Confederation Bridge in Canada; it connects Prince Edward Island with New Brunswick on the mainland. It also costs $50 to cross!


A Canadian Loon with babies.
