This pattern is so wonderful
It would make a lovely skirt 👍
Flowers don't worry
About how they're going to bloom.
They just open up
And turn towards the light
And that makes them beautiful.

Be kind to yourself.
Look after yourself.
Talk to yourself in a kind way.
It makes you feel good and life happier .
I am thankful for
the little things in life
the smile I get from a supermarket checkout lady
the compliment I get about my scarf
the wonderful herbal tea in the evening.

The Bayeux Tapestry
is an embroidered cloth nearly 70m long and 50cm tall.
It depicts the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England
and the Battle of Hastings 1066.
It is normally thought to have been made in England
in the decades after the events it shows,
although the earliest known written reference to it was in 1476.
Since 2007 it has been inscribed on UNESCO's Memory of the World Register.
It is normally displayed in the Bayeux Tapestry Museum in Bayeux, Normandy, France,
but this is closed for renovation until 2027,
and the work is currently on display in London
in the British Muesum.

I however love ‘Shaun the Sheep‘
the new film is out this year.
called ‘The Beast of Mossy Bottom‘
Inspired by the Bayeux tapestry
a team of 15 made the Baa-Ewe Tapestry.
It was displayed in the Natural history museum,
where I saw it.
I loved it!
Beautifully stitched ♥
So much fun!
Always laugh when you can,
it is cheap medicine.

We enjoyed bit of October sun in Greece
on the Ionian Island of Corfu.
There are many beautiful Monasteries.
Here the
Holy Monastery of Panagia Vlacherna
with the Mouse Island at the back.
Below on Mouse Island with
the little church left of
Pontikonisi Monastery from 11th century originally.
Corfu Old Town
famous for its labyrinth of narrow cobbled alleys
is a UNESCO World Heritage Site
and a blend of Venetian,
French,
British, and Greek architecture.
It has a certain charm.
We had a wonderful, restful time in Corfu
and enjoyed the scenery, food and people .
Corfu
has a way of making you
slow down
and savour every moment.

Take risks,
try not to care what other people think about you,
don't compare yourself with others.
I am thankful for
every new day,
the sunsets,
the peaceful nights.

Bavaria, a county in Germany has wonderful countryside.
In Upper Bavaria are beautiful lakes.
We had a little tour on the lovely Ammersee
from Diessen,
a picturesque fishing village with lots of flowers,
to Herrsching.
We have seen Steingaden,
a beautiful little village,
with lovely decorations.
It has an old Abbey from 1147.
It is no more used as a cloister.
It had a beautiful restful church garden with benches.
This is my favourite little village
dreamy, clean, spacious with a great bakery,
lovely shops, a museum,
and a good Greek Restaurant.
The next trip was to another old beautiful Abbey
in Rottenbuch.
Its’ church tower is totally separate.
A further trip went to a moor,
called the Premer Filz (raised bog)
where they used to take peat from.
It is still boggy and it was fun going through it.
Now it is a protected nature reserve.
I found beautiful little blooms there.
A legend says:
to get safely through the moor
you must not turn round.
If you do turn round
a giant will grab you
and pull you into the depth.
Bavaria has so many different fantastic views
and we had a wonderful time there.
A coffee break
in my favourite open coffee shop
was necessary too ♥
A bit of Bavarian for fun
Passt scho (pronounced bassd scho)
= "That's fine" or "No worries".
Ja mei = "Oh well"
or "It is what it is"
(used to shrug off minor worries or accept a situation).
