Belgium Shopping


Displays of wooden clogs. . . .


To rows of lace making shops. . . .


Tapestries of various designs for sale,
 or even buy the panels to make your own cushions etc. . . .



A very wide choice of commercial or handmade lace,
beautiful & intricate. . . .


An apetite for Belgium chocolates,
 to tempt anyones palate. . . .



With taste in mind, plenty of Belgium Beer to sample. . . .


Besides the relaxing meal of a cheese fondue. . . .


Much else to see,
but one of the biggest surprises,
an all year Christmas shop. . . .

Out of the Blue




Saturday, a quiet day in due to winter germs!
Quite frustrating, as although a cold day,
 the sky is beautifully blue & bright with no signs of rain,
which has inspired to seek through my archive of photos,
to find anything associated with the colour blue.



A mixture of flowers to blue skies with trees or grasses aiming high. . . .


Even a resting Peacock taken at Kew.


And, the Statue of Liberty, New York,
 looks outstandingly supreme with its deep blue backdrop,
(Photograph taken by my daughter)


The blueness of skies & sea,
 from the British coastline at Portland, Dorset,


to a photo taken in Tobago a few years ago,
 with its blue sea hightlighting seashells.
Tranquil & warm.


From Winter to Summer, what a thought. . . .
