Dry flower

Looked for flowers. sign of spring. but this is more like dry flower in the nature.

italian

I want to speak in the different language other than in English. Thought I will give the Italian a shot.
I have been talking about it too long. I think it's about a time to make a little more effort.

a little dot in the world

We don't have a fancy globe instead we have a jigsaw puzzled earth. a little detail you will notice when you try to put them together. thing you never noticed before. a small country fit in one piece, so big ones need more than 4 pieces... a country so small that I can't believe I am there. a tiny tiny dot within a country.

Fringe is over..

The Edinburgh fringe is over.
We went to see the fireworks display at Edinburgh castle.
It was quite a nice day.

The fireworks are shot from the castle and it's really magical as the fireworks sync
with a live Orchestra music in the princes garden below the castle.

Hard working people from Japan

We found these cute people while in Japan.
They fits perfectly under our Bonsai tree.

Enikki in giardino

Chiara and I were talking about creating our blog full of inspiration and lovely crafts.
enikki in giardino (Illustrated diary in garden) is now open.

Edinburgh Tattoo

It was raining all day and it has to be today we get tickets for Edinburgh tattoo show.
We wrap ourselves well but still managed to get wet. Although the weather wasn't great, the show was amazing!

Not many decorations for the Christmas.
So different from Ireland where you can't get away from Christmas.
Santas was snowboarding.. aren't they suppose to be working?

well,well time goes by so quickly.
Christmas is only 10 days to go.
We are in Hokkaido, Japan.

facebook

my friends mentioned about the facebook. I was not sure about it.
I tried and now I like it a lot.
There are some friend that I haven't been in touch with for such a long time
and because of facebook I can send short messages.
It's great!!

; lost

We went out despite the weather. I love it when you are least expecting to see anything at all
and find something new. I bought a new shoes!! a red one.
They made my day!! I was so happy to go out with friends and put some red lipstick on which I hadn't had
an opportunity to use.

And then this morning I found out that I had lost my red lipstick... ;
well, my red shoes still make me happy though.

Staaaaaaab?!?!

I went to a bookbinding class this weekend.
"Japanese stab bindings" to be precise. Sounds a little gruesome.
I enjoyed it a lot!! I am going to buy some tools so that I can do it at home...

Air Show

There was a Air Show at the Museum of Flight in Edinburgh last weekend.
All the different kind of planes are so amazing!
I don't know much about them apart from they fly and they all have different structures.
It was a bit cold day and started to rain around 4pm as the last few flights were to perform.
We got so wet but it was worthwhile.
Unfortunately, I could not take photos though...

Japan in winter

I and my husband planning to visit Japan this winter.
We would like to go skiing and snowboarding in Hokkaido. I was up till 4 in a morning looking through the web, so much information and I am overwhelmed!

intrigued

I have been reading a lot of blogs and am intrigued.
I am not sure where to start but I am going to try and share my view of things.
Bought a new MacBook recently and this is a good start I guess.

In Edinburgh, it's not quite summery yet and was a bit chilly this morning.
The Edinburgh Festival starts pretty soon. I must have a look at some of magazines
to decide what I want to see, experience and listen!!
