Sunday Trees : Nostalgic
“Life always waits for some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant~ Eleven Minutes)
I am nostalgic to many places and events but for now I decided to combine Sunday trees theme and Lens-artistis-photo-challenge theme.
These images are taken at the El Retiro park in Madrid during our recent visit. I would love to visit Madrid again and spend a day in this beautiful park.
El Retiro Park : Covering over 125 hectares and comprising more than 15,000 trees, El Retiro Park is a green oasis in the heart of the city. In it you’ll find all kinds of interesting monuments and gardens, including the Jardín de Vivaces, the Jardines de Cecilio Rodríguez (Andalusian-inspired classicistic gardens), the Jardines del Arquitecto Herrero Palacios, the Rosaleda rose garden and the Parterre Francés.
A note: When we came out of the metro station El Retiro, I wanted to take street shot, only to realize that I forgot to insert battery in the camera. Which was still in the charger at the hotel near Opera. 😦 😦 😦 One possibility was to explore the park and take pictures using our mobile phones but looking at my face, my husband suggested that we get back to hotel and bring the battery. Due to some maintenance work on the tracks between Sol and Opera it took almost an hour and half to get back to the same place.
Weekend 83: Hiking what else
Nature is one of the most underutilized treasures in life. It has the power to unburden hearts and reconnect to that inner place of peace ~ Janice Anderson
When weather forecast predicts a couple of hours of sunshine before a rainy week then the only smart choice is to go out and be in nature. I am presenting some of such precious moments.
Weekend 82: Midnight walk
To walk in nature is to witness a thousand miracles ~Mary Davis
July is the month of midnight sun in Norway. Due to the high mountains we do not experience the fantastic view of sunset – sunrise but anyways it doesn’t get dark at night in late june and july.
Here are some images from our late night walk along the river yesterday. It was very warm during day but extremely pleasant at night 😀
How are you spending your weekend?

Weekend 82: Am I lost!
These days my work keeps me busy for more than necessary and besides the working hours are just 7 a day as we follow summer time schedule.
Yesterday I decided to take it easy and attended a farewell lunch party for a colleague and spent my evening laughing with jolly good friends. I could not stay late with the gang as I was supposed to take a morning flight 😀 . Travelling early morning means packing the bag before going to bed and the result, I forgot my sunglasses and temperature today is +25.
I have shared a clip from my journey in history on my instagram account. I think one needs an instagram account to see it. Link to my page is

Silent Sunday with classical music
I am enjoying the rest of the Sunday silently by listening to this divine music, hindustani classical by pandit (master) Prabhakar Karekar.
