African day on Krk

We had live music,

people dancing,

and smiling.

Mimika Orchestra

 

Doing their jazzy - world music - local stuff on Krk. 

Ether

 

Another concert at the top of our street on Krk. 

Tramonto

 

The final concert of the Tramonto summer season on Krk kicked off with Juno Nao 

continued with Mary May

and ended with Seine (all three of them Croatian bands)

(It is nice to have some concerts while at the seaside)

The man

and the sea. 

First dip in the sea

and it was bloody freezing (12 C) but also invigorating (not to mention refreshing).

Looking forward to the next one... 

Descending towards a hidden port

The temptation

of the winter sea in the afternoon . 

Hiding from the winter sun

(unfortunately I spend a lot of the day hiding behind my computer screen, working my little fingers (and that disaster that one has to call a brain) off, but I do manage to go for a walk in the sunshine everyday.) 

Krk

is where Santa comes once he has delivered his presents... I just caught him before he went off again after his 10 day break

Nature reclaiming

its territory back from humans. I wonder how long it will take for all traces of humans to disappear once we have successfully managed to annihilate ourselves from this wonderful planet (and I am sure we will) ...

A walk on the first day of the year

in search of the old oak tree that is over 400 years old, but as we didn't find it, the 12th century church of St Krševan had to do. 

A bit of a reminder

if you are looking for inspiration for new year resolutions.

Good morning

everyone

It was my second Christmas

at the sea (ever), and no, I didn't go for a dip...
Merry Christmas everyone

The exterior

of one of the fanciest hotels in former Yugoslavia,

and the interior, one of its many hallways.

My first experience

of olive picking, no time for taking photographs, there are tons of them out there.

Virginia

might have taken me to the lighthouse

but underneath the lighthouse I stopped and asked you to come swim with me in the warm blue sea.

Come

walk with me as the sun bids the moon goodnight.

I was happy

that the good people from Krk prepared a concert I could attend while I was here, unfortunately I am not feeling too well during this visit, so I didn't stick around to really party.
