CANADA 11

Mistery Garden.

Eer wie eer toe komt. Dit was toch de mooiste tuin die we op onze reis zijn tegengekomen cq bezochten. Tineke heeft er niet alleen van genoten maar ook ideeën opgedaan. Honour to whom honour is due, this was the most delightful and charming garden.
Klik vooral even op de foto want des te meer geniet je van het plaatje.








Just to proof we have been there ...... , because you ( Creator ) doesn,t know it.




In the next post I let you know , but Canadians you may guess too, and tell what your impression is. If you haven't been there you better do that next year then.
In de volgende post zal ik vertellen van wie deze tuin is.

CANADA 10

Stratford Ontario. This is the theater were they perform Shakespeare plays two times a day.
The building was nice , but Tineke liked the garden better very well kept.
The tree is dead but got a second life as a bird.

This is in the middle of town. Bert and me , we went on the canoe and having a good time. Bert next time we take beer with us and go picnicking.


Tante Beth, we enjoyed visiting her , and tante looked very well. Don't forget she is swimming every week and still drives her car. Some think different about that ( car) but I think its ok .





Maybe you as our blogreader remember that we talked about a house in Toronto I would like to buy , but Tineke wouldn't let me , too much work had to be done. So we found this one in Stratford and Tineke ( maybe) will emigrate for it.
Some well known person has lived in it but we forgot who. Anyway we informed our real estate agent to look into it, and in the mean time we try to save some money.

Visiting Bert and Marianne in Stratfort . There house , I think, is very special and characteristic.
Wonder how long you have been living there.


How far is the work with the new chimney, Marianne maybe you can put some pictures on the Huitema blog.


Then of course we went to the "farm", the place where the honey comes from.....



......and the BBQ hamburger, the weather was nice so we enjoyed our stay.

Vultures / Gieren.

Tijdens ons bezoek bij Bill en Isabel , slaagde Tineke er in wat natuurfoto's in hun "tuin" vast te leggen.
Om dit soort foto's te maken moet je veel geduld hebben , en dat heeft Tineke.





De gieren azen op deze wasbeer







Eigenlijk moest ik haar activiteiten ( ze kroop op haar buik hiernaar toe) ook op de foto zetten.





Vergeet niet zo nu en dan de foto aan te klikken, dan zie je wat Tineke beoogt.
