Holiday photos and tagged.

Mum asked if she could put some of her holly day photos on our blog. We said well, okay, as long as she put some fev-vers on as well. She said she would do, so here are some photos she took on their Mediterranean cruise.

This first one is of the Monastery high up in the mountains at Montserrat near Barcelona, Spain. Montserrat means serrated mountain because the peak looks as if it has been cut with a knife. (It would have needed to be a big knife!) The original monastery is 1000 years old but there is not much of the original left. It was mostly rebuilt in the 15th and 16th century. Mum thinks that is right. She should write things down at the time before she forgets.

When they stopped at Cartagena in Spain, they went to the Priest's Garden in Elche. There are over 8000 palms and cacti there.

Mum bought some cacti while they were there and has put them on the windowledge.
Flynn: If you have got cacti, DON'T SNIFF THEM!! They stabbed me and left prickles in my nose.

At last! Here are the fev-vers we told mum she had to post. The Beans were sitting on a seat and more and more fev-vers kept arriving to baff and drink furrom the fountain.

They went to Naples in Italy but didn't do much there. They were there last year and went to Herculaneum which is similar to Pompeii so this year they thought they would stay in Naples, but it was Sunday so most shops were shut. They went into the open air market and mum bought a lovely leather handbag. The photo above is of Vesuvius as they were sailing out in the evening.
They went to Ajaccio in Corsica and went up to a village in the mountains and tasted the local wines, cheese, meats and cakes which were very nice. Mum was very surprised to see snow on the mountains.

When they left Corsica, the local Drum Band played them out.
We hope you liked mum's photos. We told her if we get plenty of treats, we may let her put up a few more.

List six (un) important things that make you happy.

Tag six bloggers and let them know they're “it”.

We all feel this blogging community to be one of inclusion and friendship.
We decided to do it between us and our

six important things are:

Eric:
1. Playing with water. I can't help it, I just love to do it.
2. Sleeping on the Beans pillows. I try to sleep on their heads but they make me get off.
3. Rolling in the earth. If you ever get the chance to go outdoors, try it, it's pure bliss.
Flynn:
4. Catching mice. It's great fun but I get bored when they won't play with me.
5. Nip, nip and more nip. Nuff said.
6. Going for walks in the fields. There are lots of mousies there waiting to play with me.
