Gerona or Girona, what a beautiful stop.

Image
Gerona, full of flags.  Must be proud people, proud of their language, proud of their (in)dependance, proud of their culture, cities, farmers, food, wine, everything.  No, don't worry, this is not about politics,  I'm sure you find a lot of that on the internet. For us, simply travelling, the food is great here, the city nice to visit and the wine ain't bad either.  So yes, we had a good time in Girona, as they say here.

The first stop is Vittel

I t is foggy and drizzly when we arrive in Vittel. Once, in the belle époque a town making money by taking care of rich people's health. Now, and for certain in this kind of weather, a bit shabby but with charm. I don't know who that is, but he is constantly being photographed No,this is not Scotland, but Vittel in France. Shabby with charm The Male ? but we find a good place to have dinner and didn't return until late in the evening.

Yes, we're on the road again . . .

We had great plans, leaving for months, travelling through Asia, everything seems all right. But, politics, earthquakes, health problems, changed everything. So we look at the possibilities and decided to forget everything, except the fact that we're on the road again . . . . . So if everything works out the way we hope you will see pictures from us again that are not taken were we live now, but on the road to . . . . Travel will start, if nothing happens, on the 24th of November.  Still so much to do, going to the dentist, visiting friends ( because we will be of a long time ), making appointments with the people who will take care of our house, deciding what to take and how to pack.  We're going by car so that needs some cleaning and maintenance too. We still have six days before we go . . . These photos were taken with the X-Pro1

I and Phone, out of comfort zone.

As some of you might have noticed I'm not much of a nature photographer, not so much into colour and seldom use my phone to take pictures. So, let's jump out of the black and white people photos comfort zone and as the cherry on the pudding use my phone and, just to be sure, leave the camera at home.  So here they are, mushrooms, leaves, trees, sunbeams.  all photos taken with the  IPhone XR and edited in Apple Photos
