Blissful Travel – Getting back to Normal – Part1

On November 25, 2021November 26, 2021 By RupaliIn Lens-Artists-Photo-Challenge, Monday Walk

If we were meant to stay in one place, we’d have roots instead of feet.~ Rachel Wolchin

The posts you saw last week were all scheduled. Thanks to WP. I was away. First travelled to Oslo and then to Barcelona. Attending conference post covid was quite surreal.

Oslo is ready for a pre-Christmas period full of magic. On Monday, after the sessions we enjoyed a stroll at the Christmas market in Oslo senter.

All is well that ends well.

lovely!

We are celebrating our thanksgiving today. A large table filled with food and family without any pretense of huge decorations etc. Just laughter, food, stories and love going all around.

Very impressive, but don’t you really need another couple along to share the memories; hint, hint. 😁
