"Free As A Bird"

 

Free as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

 

Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings

 

Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Can we really live without each other?

 

Where did we lose the touch

That seemed to mean so much?

It always made me feel so...

 

Free as a bird

Like the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

 

Home, home and dry

Like a homing bird I'll fly

As a bird on wings

 

Whatever happened to

The life that we once knew?

Always made me feel so free

 

Ah...

Ah...

Ah...

 

Free as a bird

It's the next best thing to be

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Free as a bird

Oooooo

 

Free...

Like most of Galapagos, Sombrero Chino (Chinese Hat) is volcanic in origin. The exploration path starts with a gorgeous beach, bright red Sally Lightfoot crabs and marine iguanas. The path goes past a colony of endemic Galapagos sea lions before passing a lava field: look for the lava cactus growing in the cracks. On the beach, keep your eyes open for the American Oystercatcher, a wading bird with a distinctive orange beak. On the trail, you may see lava lizards.

♪ Martin Gore - In a Manner of Speaking ♪

 

In a manner of speaking

I just want to say

That I could never forget the way

You told me everything

By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking

I don't understand

How love in silence becomes reprimand

But the way that I feel about you

Is beyond words

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me nothing

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me everything

In a manner of speaking

Semantics won't do

In this life that we live, we live, we only make do

The way that we feel

Might have to be sacrificed

So in a manner of speaking

I just want to say

That just like you I should find a way

To tell you everything

By saying nothing

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me nothing

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me everything

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me nothing

Oh, give me the words

Give me the words

That tell me everything

 

"Lensbaby-Style"

Landscape over Luino and Lago Maggiore

Like a vampire you didn't invite

Suddenly, a change stifles the air

Sucking away all your blood and energy

Whispering in your ear

"You aren't going to survive this one, dear"

Filling you with unabated darkness

Which is really strange because

Just two days ago

You were feeling so much better.

Beautiful colors and reflections like a painting from my yesterday walk around the lake Agia, Chania Crete

Not taken this spring but would be there as they are every year but I didn't get this far round on my woodland walk. I know the lighting situation too would have been exactly the same. Somethings can be relied upon. Having said that I hope on next walking the wood i don't find that the copper Beech behind the Cherry tree has been struck by lightning or something.......

They sit nicely together for a photo shoot though.

Places, places, get in your places

Throw on your dress and put on your doll faces

Everyone thinks that we're perfect

Please don't let them look through the curtains

Picture, picture, smile for the picture

Pose with your brother, won't you be a good sister?

Everyone thinks that we're perfect

Please don't let them look through the curtains

.....go figure

I think I got that the right way round! Anyway a Bee that pretends to be a wasp.

The morning fog had burned off the valley as I headed east on CA 58 towards Tehachapi, Bakersfield behind me. I wasn't sure how this would come out, the sun was above and directly in front of me, so bumped up the contrast and used my slightly tented windshield and fast shutter to reduce the brightness. Also luck to find one of the few spots on this steep climb big enough to pull my rig off the roadway.
