MOUNTAIN LAKE WALK IN ANDORRA


Welcome to the nature walk...Lake of Engolasters 1620m altitude, few minutes away from Andorra- La-Vella the capital of Andorra...


On the way up by car we past this small but beautiful church of Encostelars...

NEW DOORS OPENING SOON


This is an old door but for me it will be a new experience soon. In few weeks time I will open this door to a new adventure...



I will then also open these wooden window shatters, letting the sunlight in...


Even this door that has been closed for quite sometime will be open soon...

I WISH YOU HAPPY NEW YEAR...


With these two photos I want to wish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This is our summer terrace by the pier and in the middle is the barbecue and the spoors in the snow are from a visiting fox that lives somewhere in the neighborhood...

...And now I have to just wait for the next summer to arrive to enjoy sitting by the pier...Meanwhile I am just dreaming about a warm summer...

GREETING FROM WINTERLAND


This statement works for me...And now at this point my home is in Finland where the winter and cold weather started so early that I could make these ice decoration for winter. With the help of a old metal chocolate box with the shape of the heart and cold winter day some berry decoration and water turned to a heart that is hanging now on the entrance area of our holiday house.


In this one I used a gingerbread mould ...
