ALWAYS LOOK AT....

The bride side of life...du du du duddududu du....

NIGHT MARKED

A fishermans life in Zanzibar isn't easy. They go out in the night, come in early in the morning, try to sell later the fish at the fish marked. Get to sleep around 4  hours and go up again to prepar table and food for the night marked situated in front of The House of Wonder, just close to the beaches. Guys are pushing tourists. Prices change according to who the buyer is. And yes I payed definitively too much one night.
But it was a mixture of smell and rumours. People shouting, children crying, woman chatting, tourist enjoying a more affordable temperature. It was a big reunion place for everybody. A few cafés were open where you can sit down and sip a cup of chai masala or spiced chai or why not a ginger soda.

A large choice of different fish and vegetable as well as Zanzibar pizza.

One of the working fisherman that don't sleep a lot.

Girls and boys meet here with and without families. 

Some places it was very cheap like here to get real homemade food some not.

GOTHENBURG - GÖTEBORG ....

and I still love this town.

After almost 11 years in Sweden, I still know why I love to be here!

THE SKY, the swedish sky.

Look at this blue colour...I am sold again.... dear Göteborg.

The new skylight down at the harbour, with the lipstick on the left and the new panorama wheel with heated cabins where you have a great view of town. A must even for those who live in town. Just be tourist for ONE day in your own town.



A LITTLE BIT OF CHRISTMAS

Saturday night I went around in town to find motives for a Christmas card that I have been asked for with some special buildings on it.

I just want to share one of the pictures taken of the teatre building in Gothenburg with the tram approaching by.

LOVE is the most important word for this year Christmas here in town. Every where you find small stations where you are supposed to kiss and hug someone. This was indeed a brilliant idea I think.

FASCINATION

There is still fascination, even after 9 1/2 years in Sweden. Yes, I just love the Swedish sky!

In every season, with all his colours, this nordic light can still fascinate me. I can just look outside the window and look at the sky, the blue and grey tones, the colours by sunset or sunrise.

During the week-end I have been travelling to Danmark, but on the ferry I catched these two pictures. One early in the morning the other on the way back in the night with full moon reflecting into the water.

This is one of the reasons why I still love to be here!
