WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

The Netherlands are famous for its bicycles. I took the first few photos in my son's garage, and the last one in a bicycle parking ! There are bicycles  I haven't seen in any other country, some people transport almost their entire family on a single bike.

WEEKEND 

From one day to the other the temperature dropped by half ! No wonder that lot of people caught a cold, me included although I was very careful. If the day before it was so hot that it was impossible to sit on the terrace, the next day it was impossible because it was to cold !

I played again a little bit on my computer and then joined the others for the activity and the coffee afterwards.

I have never sat on a horse, but thanks to AI I learned it very quickly.

Rosie has gained a bit of weight

On Sunday the temperature raised a bit but still to cool to sit outside. Our A/C "specialists" had left the A/C on and the restaurant was a fridge. I asked which genius had turned on the air conditioning when it was 18°C ​​outside.

 

I explained for the X time that the thing is designed to cool the room down, so you don't need it when it's already cold. I think it's hopeless; I'm going to let the director know that people simply don't understand how it works

 

There weren't many people there, so we just chatted together; there were quite a few guests present, too.

and to end the day I got this photo from my grandson who just enjoyed a "little" portion of Spaghettis !

 

and a picture from the Garda Lake (Italy) taken from high in the mountains ! He too loves his Nonno's (Grandpa) Lake !

FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

The whole week we were sitting or laying in an oven ! It was hotter than ever! On Monday, I really needed to buy some things for Rosie, and since it was on the way, I called my doctor and went to see her as well. I just can't seem to shake this virus, and I’m having increasing trouble breathing whenever I do something physical.  She prescribed a medication that will hopefully help! Apart from that, not much was going on except for people repeatedly having to go to the hospital because they hadn't drunk enough. Old people don't have the feeling to be thirsty anymore. 

Things improved a bit starting Thursday, and we were even able to play boccia (except me); it was really fun. Afterward, Kim and Elinor brought out some tables so we could have our coffee under the giant tree. For refreshments, there was fruit ice cream, watermelon, coffee, and cake. Most people had never eaten watermelon before, but that has really changed; now, everyone dives right in whenever watermelon is served.

 

We all enjoyed the game very much and under this old tree it was nice and cool

 

The rest of the time I was spending in my room, windows and curtains closed and light on !! My ventilator turned full speed, so the room was nice and not to hot. I continued my new hobby, trying out the AI picture creations. My son and family are actually in Italy and now at the Garda lake his Dad's home..

 

He is like me homesick and goes there nearly each year, combining with other regions. He sent me pictures :

 

  Dog Leia in his normal look                                        Here I dressed her with a bathing suit and a cap

 

 

Father and son dressed normal and then as divers. 

 

Now I look at videos and photos with other eyes, you just can dress famous people like you want, put them where you want that could be dangerous. For me as a hobby and no celebrities it's fun.

 

I have written or rather AI has written an administrative letter, very nice. But other things I haven't tried yet. 

 

Next week we will get to normal temperatures again !
