Hi Everybody!
Hope your week is going well!
We had fun again yesterday and today, but the time has flown by, and Susi goes home again tomorrow - all good things must come to an end!
For Art Journal Journey, Back to School, I have another
hybrid piece, using a fun background and an image from Gecko Galz which I masked with a filter. My fave part is the quote, I just love it!
Yesterday we went by tram and bus to Grafenberg, a wooded and hilly part of Düsseldorf. First we discovered this spring:
Then we climbed up and up.....
Till we got to the top and were able to enjoy the view over Düsseldorf:
We headed for the 'Wildpark' - a nature reserve in the woods where you can find deer, mouflons, (wild sheep) boars, wild cats, owls, bees, and much, much more. The boars did not show themselves, so we had to be contented with riding on this one:
We saw various sorts of deer:
The 'bambis' were very sweet, and enjoyed being fed by the visitors:
The wild cat was having a midday sleep in her enclosure:
There are lots more photos which I will show another time. Suffice to say that the way home was interrupted by visits to restaurants and the ice parlour....
Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
What a wonderful art piece, I love the quote too. I enjoyed your photos as well, the deer look very sweet.
ReplyDeleteThe page is wonderful Valerie and such a funny quote you Paul Murton.

ReplyDeleteI have SO enjoyed the photos of you and Susi playing together. I will be as sad as you when she goes home. It's been a fun week, and I've really had fun seeing all the things you two saw and accomplished while she was/is here. Again, I think you are the PERFECT host!

I wish I could be like that wild cat and go back to bed this morning:) What great view from up on that hill and the nature park looks like a great place to visit. You ladies look like the fun isn't ending. I am also loving your school piece today. I'm with the you, nice quote. Hope its another fun "last' day. Boy has the week gone fast. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteAnother wondrous day! How big are those cats?
ReplyDeleteThat quote is priceless.

They looked to be a little longer than 'normal'cats, and the tail was very long and thick.

DeleteI think this is my favorite "back to school " entry of yours so far Valerie!! What a perfectly wonderful outing you and Susi had-and those views of Dusseldorf are spectacular! Thanks for sharing your art and your time with Susi.
ReplyDeleteFabulous page. I love those girls linking arms in the front. What a lovely visit you had with your friend. That park looks wonderful. Thank you for sharing it all with us.
ReplyDeleteYour journal spread as usual is pretty nifty! Love that quote and I had to laugh -
ReplyDeleteWhat is this - have pig will travel?
We had plenty of deer when we lived in the mountains. Those babies in your pictures are not old enough to leave their Mama - they still have their spots.
Love that kitty kat. I do think cats are beautiful animals.
