Australia is suffering a major climatic disaster. Those infernal fires are of gigantic proportions, that are hard to imagine for most of us. Climate change is real. Young people have realized and are shouting for help, but sadly, politicians seem to don't care. In Mexico our ignorant president are supporting fossil fuels instead of renovable energies, which is a tremendous error for our future. Hope we can make a change before this is unavoidable.

Simkha has stopped sleeping in the dog's place at night and has moved to my bed. At first he sits on my chest, demanding affection, and then moves to the free part of the bed.
Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!
Happy National Cat Day to all cats in the USA and elsewhere...

Keukenhof est un très beau jardin de fleurs (32 hectares) avec plus de 7 millions de bulbes en fleurs chaque printemps. Symbole des Pays-Bas, il est un lieu unique dans le monde dédié à la tulipe.
Le parc de Keukenhof est situé à une distance proche d'une trentaine de kilomètres d'Amsterdam.
Keukenhof est l'un des plus grands jardins de fleurs au monde avec plus de 800 variétés différentes de tulipes et de nombreux autres types de fleurs qui fleurissent dans le parc chaque printemps.
Même les plus grands sceptiques sont impressionnés !
Le jardin est situé dans l'environnement boisé d'un château du 17ème siècle visible de l'autre coté de la route. Autrefois, le lieu était appelé Keukenduin, littéralement "la cuisine des dunes". Le nom Keukenduin vient du fait que les produits de la région des dunes, comme le gibier, le bétail et toutes sortes d'herbes et de baies, étaient destinés aux propriétaires du château. Pour ensuite devenir Keukenhof soit "Le potager" qui devait servir le château en légumes et en herbes aromatiques.
C'est 1949 que les jardins de Keukenhof sont créés sous l'impulsion du Maire de l'époque souhaitant valoriser le travail des horticulteurs. Depuis les producteur de bulbes de la région exposent chaque année leurs plus belles variétés de tulipes dans des massifs grandioses.
Keukenhof is a very beautiful flower garden (32 hectares) with more than 7 million flower bulbs each spring. Symbol of the Netherlands, it is a unique place in the world dedicated to the tulip.
Keukenhof Park is located at a distance of about thirty kilometers from Amsterdam.
Keukenhof is one of the largest flower gardens in the world with over 800 different varieties of tulips and many other types of flowers blooming in the park each spring.
Even the biggest skeptics are impressed!
The garden is set in the wooded surroundings of a 17th century chateau visible across the road. Formerly, the place was called Keukenduin, literally "the kitchen of the dunes". The name Keukenduin comes from the fact that the products of the dune region, such as game, cattle and all kinds of herbs and berries, were destined for the owners of the castle. To then become Keukenhof or "The vegetable garden" which was to serve the castle with vegetables and aromatic herbs.
It was in 1949 that the Keukenhof gardens were created at the instigation of the Mayor of the time, wishing to promote the work of horticulturists. Since then, bulb producers in the region have exhibited their most beautiful varieties of tulips each year in grandiose beds.

The daylily is an amazingly low-maintenance perennial. It’s virtually disease-free, pest-free, and drought-resistant; it’s also not picky about soil quality. Plus, the flower has a long bloom period! Here’s how to plant and care for daylilies in your garden, as well as how to easily propagate them for more plants!
About Daylilies
The daylily’s botanical name, Hemerocallis, comes from the Greek hemera (“day”) and kallos (“beauty”). The name is appropriate since each flower lasts only one day! However, each scape has 12 to 15 buds on it, and a mature plant can have 4 to 6 scapes, which is why the flower seems to bloom continuously.
Originally from Asia, these plants have adapted so well that many of us think of them as natives. Imagine the excitement of a 16th-century explorer cruising the Orient and finding these gorgeous plants! European gardeners welcomed daylilies into their gardens, and when early colonists sailed for the New World, daylilies made the crossing with them.
Despite their name, daylilies are not “true lilies” and grow from fleshy roots. True lilies grow from onion-like bulbs and are of the genus Lilium, as are Asiatic and Oriental lilies. In the case of daylilies, leaves grow from a crown, and the flowers form on leafless stems—called “scapes”—which rise above the foliage.
There are thousands of beautiful daylilies to choose from. Combine early, midseason, late blooming varieties, and repeat bloomers to have daylilies in flower from late spring through the first frost of fall. If you see a height listed alongside a daylily variety, this refers to the length of the scape. Some can reach 6 feet tall!

These Daylilies were photographed at Pashley Manor Gardens. At Pashley you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.

Aer Lingus Boeing 747-130 EI-BED was leased to LAN Chile between mid-December 1988 and the end of February 1989. Seen here back in EIDW on 4 March 1989 operating for Aer Lingus before repaint back into EI livery.
Decided to go thru my archive files while I'm patiently waiting for my Nikon P900 to be replaced. Unfortunately there seems to be a glitch in some of the earlier produced P900 models. On several occasions while the zoom lens is extended the camera freezes and it had to be re-booted to operate. I'm hoping B&H ships out the replacement sooner than later and hopefully Nikon has addressed this issue. From what I've been reading it seems to be a problem with this camera, not all but some.
So in the meantime I thought some nice spring flowers would be a nice departure from creepy crabs and ravenous raptors.
As I make my way to the wetlands each day I pass by my neighbors beautiful front yard gardens, these were taken way before our drought restrictions. Sadly some of these flowers beds are now gone and their lawns replaced with fake grass.
I liked the texture juxtaposition of these 3 new flower & succulent posts. Delicate, fuzzy and prickly.
Happy weekend everyone.
My glasses.....their reflection was bright & shiny hanging on the bed that AM. I love my glasses, I certainly wouldn't see well without them.
Another room in the cave dwelling of the Berber family. It's not the museum, people really live there :)
Jebel Dahar is known for its cave dwellings excavated into the mountainside. Horizontal tunnels carved into the rock serve as rooms. The openings to these are uncovered or covered only by a carpet. Shelves, racks, benches and beds are cut out of the walls. Sometimes further rooms are created which are reached by means of a rope and steps cut in the wall; these are used for storage. The exit door is usually decorated with traditional symbols such as the hand of Fatima or a fish, and is often concealed between rocks and bushes. There is sometimes a nomads' tent and a shelter for animals nearby. The cave dwellings are well adapted to the climate, remaining cool in summer and retaining warmth in winter. Nowadays some of them also have been equipped with electricity and running water. Some families, for a small fee, invite tourists and let them look into their homes.

Kolejny pokój w mieszkaniu Berberów wydrążonym w skale. I nie jest to żaden skansen, oni tam tak mieszkają :)
Dżabal Dahar słynie z mieszkań jaskiniowych wykopywanych w zboczu góry. Poziome tunele wydrążone w skale pełnią funkcję pomieszczeń. Otwory do nich są odsłonięte lub przykryte jedynie dywanem. W ścianach wycina się półki, regały, ławy i łóżka. Czasami tworzy się dodatkowe pomieszczenia, do których można dotrzeć za pomocą liny i schodów wykutych w ścianie; służą one jako magazyny. Drzwi wyjściowe są zazwyczaj ozdobione tradycyjnymi symbolami, takimi jak ręka Fatimy lub ryba, i często ukryte między skałami i krzewami. W pobliżu znajduje się czasem namiot nomadów i schronienie dla zwierząt. Jaskinie są dobrze przystosowane do klimatu, zapewniając chłód latem i ciepło zimą. Obecnie niektóre z nich wyposażone są też w elektryczność i bieżącą wodę. Dużo osób w Matmacie i okolicach wciąż mieszka w takich jaskiniowych domach. Niektóre rodziny, za drobną opłatą, zapraszają turystów i pozwalają im zaglądać do swoich mieszkań.

A cheeky lingerie shoot I did in my lovely bedroom on a lazy Bank Holiday afternoon.
** I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses,
For tonight, I'll sleep on a bed of nails.
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is,
And lay you down on a bed of roses.**
