This blindingly bright day in the weekend reminded me that there aren't many days left of summer. I can feel the chill of autumn and winter in the air. The colours and the light around this semi-derelict jetty reminded me of Cuba. Which reminded me of my sheepish adoration of Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights despite the fact it was filmed in Puerto Rico. And also rated #11 in Entertainment Weekly's Top 25 Worst Sequels Ever Made (2006). But my love knows no boundaries! And then we found a gypsy fair, complete with caravans, selling trinkets, waffles, and toy aeroplanes made out of beer cans.
Note to Kathleena the Tarot Reader: Even if you didn't have the flu, I wouldn't have paid 40 bucks for a tarot reading. Sorry.

ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful pictures, with so many colours and so much sun!
ReplyDeleteWe have now winter and snow, it's cold, brrr.. and here, by you, I can feel summer.
You look so sweet and sunny :-)
I've never heard of a gypsy fair. However, it looks like a fun way to pass a summer day! The sleeve detail on your blouse is precious :)
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures. The blue and yellow is so nice and bright. I'm sort of glad your summer is ending...because then it will come here. Sorry, I'm a terribly selfish person when it comes to nice weather!
ReplyDeleteI think this may show how sad my life is, but have you ever tried getting a free tarot reading online? It just randomly generates cards for you, and I got an amazingly accurate one the other day (was in one of those 'WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD? moods). Here's the link:
