Pursue righteousness and a godly life, along with faith , love, perseverance, and gentleness .
1 Timothy 6:11.
We travelled through Germany followed by the relatively flat green of Belgium with a stop in Namur and then the port in France.
Her dog had run off with Bess and we both wanted to find them.
Bess ran into Bugsy and we spotted hers soon enough.
I asked the lady her name and with a little cough she said “Dirty”.
I waited and then she said instead of /i:/at the end say/^/.
With that we all three were talking.
She travelled alone with her dog.
She spent two months of the year in Greece and was now on her way home. We shared our pasta and Parmesan and she gave us so much good information. Then I just had to ask how old she was. She smiled and said 77.
She had done the trip 17 times, and no it was nothing , there were a thousand others like her who traveled alone in their motorhomes.
Better on the road than alone at home… and were we coming to Bavaria ?
No, not this time.
Well who knows we may see each other in Greece.
I hope so!
Bright in Namur.
A French speaking town with an ice rink in preparation for Christmas fun.
It is then a quick peek into the Baroque Cathedral dedicated to Saint Auban. Inside are the paintings of Jaques Nicolai who died in Namur in 1678. I found out from Google that the copyrights on his works have expired and that not much is known about him except that he was from Southern Netherlands. While looking at these paintings I noticed that the people on the whole had no shoes on. I then focused on what the feet looked like.
Let us go into one of them feet first.🤣
And there he goes splashing through with Jesus standing calmly. The feet are hidden.
Back in Bugsy and then to the port in France.
There on the left is a life boat. The floor is a bit shiny and wet.
The ferry is massive with just a few of us passengers .
There are probably more crew members on board tonight.
The wave motion is getting stronger.
I hope all will go well.
I hate getting sick.
We will be home soon and it will be good.
Thank you for being with us and I have loved reading your comments. I intended to read tonight but it is getting rough. Take care.
Sandy 🙂
A very interesting trip! Love the photos!
Thank you! It has changed how I must appreciate where I live. The earth quake zone in Italy with all the repairs going on while people continued with their daily lives made me think.
You are right… And we think we are in charge of everything!
Isn’t it amazing who we meet on our travels? I enjoyed the post and wish you safe travels home.
Thank you so much for making this journey more special by giving your input. I took quite a few more pictures of washing. May include them with something else. Thank you again for being with both of us.
Thank you. Pleased to be home.
We aren’t in charge of everything but maybe just a few.
That woman would be wonderful to chat to…
Love the paintings.
She certainly was. Yes, the paintings were very into teaching the stories.
So much interesting stuff! The spider on the playground really made me curious. It would be so interesting to see the different playgrounds designed for children around the world. While play is universal, context is very much cultural. I’m off to see if I can find some more information on playgrounds around the world.
Ah, so glad you are doing that. I will remember to keep an open. I have only received you comments now. I wonder why!!
I’ve had the same thing happen. WordPress can be weird sometimes!
