PhotoHunt: hands - Skipping rope in his hands

Earlier this week I heard someone skipping with a skipping rope in the driveway. It was my oldest, Giancarlo - doing some exercise before he went to the Gym.

PhotoHunt: Yellow - Daffodils



I saw spring with my heart today:
A small girl, skipping, came my way.
Her Daddy's smile was on her face,
Her petticoat dripped fresh-torn lace.

A bunch of yellow-gold I spied
Behind her back - Oh woe betide!
Fresh daffodils! "For you," she said.
Plucked from my neighbour's flowerbed.

This poem was written for me by my mother Marcelle Pollington, when I was a little girl in California. The picture is from several years ago - when I was looking at the daffodils at Canberra's Floriade festival.

This is my latest entry.

PhotoHunt: Four - window panes...





Do you have a favorite cafe? I'd like to share mine with you... It's Lavena Cafe in Piazza San Marco in Venice. I had a wonderful time on my last trip with Alessandro.

PhotoHunt: Space - Trixie and Giancarlo



Trixie found herself a comfortable space to take a nap this afternoon.
