Spring Breezes in London

While walking in the streets of London, my dear friend and I had plenty of time to enjoy sunny weather in the blossom gardens and vivid neighbourhoods. We did some encounters with Missy the Dog, antique dealers, five hundred thousand tourists and rugby versus football fans. Of course we couldn't avoid runnig into nice shops either.

Family Pictures

Here is our new Family Member, Ronja.

We believe she is the second from the right above.

She has been on my mind for the last 18 yrs, so now we think it's about time.

It feels huge :)

one afternoon

Good afternoon my Little Bird, an elderly guard greeted me when I entered the British Museum of Natural History one chilly Friday in March. I had run with all my forces through the city centre of London to see the last glimpse of the amazing photo exhibition of Wildlife and Environment (see earlier writings) before it was closed for good. I had read about it a lot and almost given up hope to see it, but here I was, really here and except for a sweathy face, I had smiling lips.

I have always liked really BIG buildings. Buildings that make me feel small, bulings that shine with their presence in the city. This was one of those buildings. Although my previous numberous amount of visits in London, I had never been here. Never imagined the size and beauty of the building -especially inside. I just thought it's "one of those gothic houses" London is full of. I was wrong. The space opened up with all its knowledge and wisdom to me. It felt like a huge library. As a child I wanted to collect books (even though I would never read them), but the thought of all the knowledge on my shelves intrigued me. I felt all the same again. I didn't know where to start so I had to sit down in the middle of the main hall and investigate in the beauty of this space I was surrounded by. This is only a small brief of what I saw, but I hope you can enjoy it - it looks a little like an optical illusion :)

If you re bored..

härligt magaplask :)

Jag tror vi har en död sköl´j´padda under soffan

Min dag har börjat rätt bra idag. Ett skojigt veckoslut i London bakom och min arbetsvecka inleddes med en mysig lektion i S2 (svenska som andra språk). Vi diskuterade om djur och hur det känns när ett kärt djur dör. Min lilla tös blev fundersam en stund och konstaterade att hon "nog" haft lite otur med sin sköldpadda som hon tappat flere gånger och inte längre kan hitta. - JA vi har nog nu en död sköl´j´padda under soffan, konstaterade hon... -där har jag inte tittat på många månader.

Environment Wildlife Photography

I've seen something amazing during the weekend. The National History Museum in London. All respect to the scientist Mr. Darwin and his ideas of Diversty of Life. It was beautifully representated in an exhibition where powerful and delicat environment and wildlife meet. Here you see a few of my favourites. What do you think about these leaf-cutter antz by Bence Máté or the thoughtful baboon by Adrian Bailey?
