Thansk, Protege and ~Tim!Bergen is surrounded by mountains and they are criss-crossed by trails and walking paths, used by exercise buffs and families with strollers alike. You're looking at a path along Storevatnet (Big Pond) on Sandviksfjellet (Mt. Sandy Cove, named after the actual sandy cove at its feet).
Just noticed it's already Friday over there. Here in the US, 9/11 is now \”patriot day,\” whatever the hell that means. Blah. I'll be hiding from the media this weekend…
Thank you so much, Alice! Re 9/11: Calling it \”patriot day\” reminds me of old East Block memorials which are very fond of using \”patriot\” or \”patriotic\” in their titles. Makes me think of \”Animal Farm\”. The US seems to be turning into the sort of country it used to criticize.
Ah, Keera, thank you for your comment on my today's post and for clarifying the name of the flower for me! It is \”Heather\”of course; I thought \”heath\” sounded strange but I could not find the correct translation.;))Hope you are having a great Sunday evening.;)
You're welcome! You weren't too far off: Heath is where heather grows. 🙂 Here's how I've found some translations: For any subject on Wikipedia, there will be languages listed in the left sidebar on that page. Those languages have their own page on the subject.
