Frakkland, Spánn og fl 2007 100

I am home again after a very good trip on the continent. We covered 3700 kilometres there. Our bus driver a man from Bavaria was very nice and so was our guide too, an Icelander who has done this kind of job for 36 years but still looks so young. 

 

The story will come gradually. Now I just want to say that we had a very good trip.

 

There was still one very unpleasant thing that happened to me. I saw something. Some one in my room one night and  he was not of this world. I want to ask all of you to pray for him if  you can. I really never thought that anything like that could happen and not this way. I will tell you when it comes to that in my travel story.We were lucky and the  weather  was good  everywhere we went.

Thank you all for your good wishes in your comments. I will try to read you as soon as I can. Love J

The pictures are from Arles in France.

    skald - welcome home! I am glad you had a good time.The pictures are interesting,I enjoy seeing far away places! Are those people outside the credit union protesting about something? They look peaceable though,so no trouble there?

    Great to have you back Skald!  I've missed you.

    awaiting your stories, skald. including that out-of-this-world apparition, your mere mention of which made my hairs stand on end. welcome back, friend :-)

    skald, welcome back! i'd like to know a little more about the subjects of each picture when you've got the time to discuss them a bit more--i'm sure you must be busy getting everything put away and getting back to your normal schedule.

    that second one looks like a protest at a bank. ?

    I had written an answer for each and every one of you when all went away and I could not get it back so here I go again.
    Rupert. Thanks so much. This was a demonstration against the new government and we just happened to be there at the time. It was peaceful .
    Fearing. Thanks so much.
    Moonriver. Thanks I will tell the story when the time comes. It was really bad and I screamed I was so frightened.
    Ed. Thanks. All the pictures are in Arles. The first is of a roman ring theater where they still have bull fights once a year. But they don't kill the bulls.
    The second one is as I told Moonriver a demonstration against the new government but a peaceful one. The third one is of one of the many narrow streets in Arles.

    Welcome home Skald! I m looking forward to lots more picures and of course you really have my curiousity going about the man in your room.

    Skald........welcome back!!!!

    You made me smile as soon as i opened your post with that pic of the Arles mini replica of the Colosseo...i am glad you had a great trip...

    ah.....the familiar sight of a demonstration and flags in the streets....:-)

    And i cant wait to read about your ghostly apparition....

    Hi, welcome back. I'm waiting impatiently to hear more, about the trip and about the apparition. Did you have a conversation with it?
  • skald said on Oct 29, 2007....
    Mamie.  I really thought that I would never go to those places either and now I have been there so you never know maybe you will go there too. Thanks Mamie
    Botoni.  Good to see you as always and thanks. Yes the story will come but when we have the  right night in the row.

    Ginger.
    Good I could make you smile. As you said before, Arles is very nice. I was only sorry I did not enter the small Colosseum . I did not know that it was possible. We thought it was being restored but we learned later that we could have gone in for a price. Yes the ghost, it will come on the right day.
    Trinov. Thank you so much. No, I was too frighted and the man was angry.

  • quietone said on Oct 29, 2007....

  • skald said on Oct 29, 2007....
    Uniquely.  I went to France and Spain and Germany and drove through Switzerland. Thanks for the comment.
    Kruu.  Just wait. I only hope that every one has not forgotten that when it finely comes  in my story.
    Quiet.  Yes, but not a good spirit. I will pray for him.
    Destiny.  Thanks and good to see you.

What has so much appeal for me is the idea of stopping whenever I feel the de...
