Beautiful pics Christine^^^^^

Damn that sounds like a zoo i'd love to visit one day. The way you described it give me visions of beauty in my head. And the fact that it's a 5min walk for you is even more amazing. If I was there, I would go every chance I get. And the work you did with the tripod and the toy were great ideas, you were able too get some wonderful shots. I will say this, you are a wiz with the camera Christine.:smt023

 

Love your Additions, Christine ^^^^

And I'd love to meet you there! We four, Tammy , Bliss, you and me in the Zoo- this would be great!:smt081

Animal photography is definitly a question of patience, time, but it's a nice hobby (btw- Thank you), yes the place I live is really fabulous, the best place I've ever lived:smt045

You know, our places of recovery/ parks are very small (compared to US), but the people appreciate and live with it.

 

Awwwww.. I love these kind of cute pics...awwww so lovely:smt038, beautiful Bliss, just beautiful!!:smt055

 

Yeah, that sounds like fun. Will we have that cheese and wine you promised us.lol From what you tell me, where you live sounds like a fabulous place. As far as our parks being bigger goes. Alot of times bigger isn't better. I hate being around too many people, I mean its cool sometimes but other times you just want to feel comfortable. You know what I mean?:smt003

 

Very nice pics KB. Can't wait to see the other ones you have coming.

 

You think I would spoil you guys just with cheese and wine, when you are here in Switzerland??? NOOOO..I would spoil you with a full swiss meal, of course!


Aperitivo
Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin brut with strawberries in ice-glasses

Appetizer
Tagliatelle with Chanterelles embedded in a creamy-dry white wine sauce and Bruschetta with fresh tomatoes and aglio

Entrée
Duett of Filet de boeuf and porc in a coat of parmeggiano, prosciutto di Parma (ham) and sage, baby carots and basilic potatoes and a salsa-dance of fresh, different herbals of the provence

Dessert
Tiramisu


I know, what you mean..I prefer small places with less people, too. Anonymity is good, but too much is bad. And everybody needs space..I love this place because of two reasons.
1. I reach everything I need within a 10 mins walk, all shops are around me, the airport is ten mins from me (by metro) and it's a green town
2. People are kind and you can talk to everybody

 

Great picture additions all. Love the sloth especially.

 

Damn, a swiss meal sounds very tasty Christine(from start to finish):smt045. LOL I'll probably end up eating to much messing around with you. BTW We should all be so lucky to live in walking distance of everyplace we like to go(walking is a very go thing).

 

Cool pics Tammy. You know im nothing without my Tornadoes and Lightning pics.lol

How did I miss this one. Beautiful Volcano action with some lightning. Nice! I love this picture KB.

 

With me you don't gain weight :smt081, just get some energy you need:smt112

Thank you....I think the last one is severely, in the way of substantial, powerful and aggressive, wild. The one in the middle is as I've observed them sometimes, how I was feeling them, lazy, bored, powerless and sad.
