Visiting Interlaken

I started my journey from Paris Gare Lyon 🇫🇷to Basel then to Interlaken🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I was really freezing while waiting for my train to Switzerland.🥶…then like 5 minutes after arrival to Basel, I need to hop on another train right away going to Interlaken.

And while on train, here are some of the sceneries.

I visited my long time friend after like 40 years. She married a Swiss and they have 2 daughters. I just met one of her daughters though. They are all sweet and warm people. They welcomed me in their house so generously🤗

On my first day, my friend who I am so fond with like my own big sister treated me a dinner at this famous hotel, the “Victoria Jungfrau Grand Hotel”

We ordered our food and had a great meal. We were both so full afterwards🤗🤗🤗

The following day, I woke up and went to the garden and just enjoyed the morning breeze….

So beautiful views….

“The morning breeze has secrets to tell you. Do not go back to sleep.” ~rumi~

After a hearty breakfast, we walked around the city afterwards…

We had so much fun too like children😬😁😀

On my second night. We went out drinking red wine and tequila. What a combination, right? So what would you expect happened afterwards?

Anyways we both had a very good sleep that we thought we would miss going to the top of Interlaken.

But no, not a chance. Though we struggled waking up. We went up still to the “Harder-Kulm” 😁😄😃

When we reached the top “Harderkulm”, she said I have to try the “Swiss Cheese Fondue”.

Wow! It was really true cheesy and delicious😋😋😋

Three nights and four days spent in Interlaken was really joyful.

“People don’t take trips, trips take people”, and thanks to my big sister and friend, Rosemarie. Her warm welcome to me made my trip to Interlaken as awesome as possible, in-spite of the fact that it was really freezing at this season.

She said, I must come back during summer and promised that I will enjoy more😍

Thanks so much big sister. Until next trip😘❤️

Free Day- Cafe Siesta

This is my update for my
jigsaw puzzle… cafe, last week….
I decided to find all the 4 corners and all the edges.  But this is where I get so far:

 

 

It gave me a super headache, whew!
Anyways, I thought that, Mr. Albert Einstein would give me a hint.  So Vince and I went to meet him, hahaha 🙂

Well, he said, I would need a big frame for my jigsaw puzzzle…. Whoaaaa!
Okay. Got it, Einstein!

 

And to help me connect the puzzle, while drinking my favorite cup of coffee.
Let’s watch this video.  Enjoy! 🙂

Or you can always grab the coffee you’d fancy at my Cafe Siesta.

 

Nothing to do?  Just click on one of my pages or categories, “Coffee, Anyone?” and you will be taken to a place where you can be relaxed and day dream and voilà!  I hope my coffee would just help to boost up your energy. Enjoy!

Always remember in time like this, wherever you are, whatever you do, I am always with you in Coffee spirit🙂

Free Day- Cafe Siesta

Today’s coffee is so challenging to drink-up.
My daughter Greta just gave me this surprise gift- A jigsaw puzzle…
I thought this one is so easy but, NO…
Just look how tiny these pieces are!

How about sorting first all pieces with yellow? With blue? With purple?  Hmmm… Whew!

Well, I just don’t know how many  cups of coffee I would have with this kind of game…. hehehe

But I am sure, when I am done. It would be worth it! 🙂

Anyways you can always grab the coffee you’d fancy at my Cafe Siesta.

Family Christmas Tree

This was our hand-made Christmas Tree 🙂 last 2013…

 

I won’t be able to be with my family this Christmas’16,
but the memories and togetherness of making our Family Christmas Tree with them count the most.

The joy of making it and sharing thoughts on how to do it was already a Blissful Family Christmas.

The Perfect Fan… Mother’s Songs May Music Passion

Backstreet Boys – The Perfect Fan

by:

Spoiled Brat

My son Deu and my Mom 🙂

 

 

“The Perfect Fan”

 

It takes a lot to know what is love
It’s not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don’t think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed[Chorus:]
You showed me
When I was young just how to grow
You showed me
Everything that I should know
You showed me
Just how to walk without your hands
Cuz mom you always were
The perfect fan

God has been so good
Blessing me with a family
Who did all they could
And I’ve had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you’ve done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son

[Chorus]

You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would always be there
I wanna thank you for that time
And I’m proud to say you’re mine

[Chorus]

Cuz mom you always were,
Mom you always were
Mom you always were,
You know you always were
Cuz mom you always were… the perfect fan

I love you Mom

Me, my brothers, mom, sisters and niece 🙂

Mother Is Heaven

Maman… May Music Passion

Maman de Christophe Maé

by:

Guiguoz

 

Paroles de Maman

Quand je la regarde faire, j’ai les larmes aux yeux
Mais ce n’est qu’une mère qui voudrait être le bon Dieu
Ce n’est qu’une mère qui voudrait être le bon Dieu

Quand je la regarde faire, j’ai les larmes aux yeux
Mais ce n’est qu’une mère qui voudrait être le bon Dieu
Ce n’est qu’une mère qui voudrait être le bon Dieu
Pour ne jamais voir l’enfer dans le vert de mes yeux
Alors je danse vers des jours heureux
Alors je danse vers et je m’avance vers
Des jours heureux

Refrain :
Je t’aime, je t’aime
Maman, maman
Je t’aime passionnément
Je t’aime, je t’aime
Maman, maman
Je t’aime simplement

Quand je regarde mon père et ses yeux amoureux
Elle sera sûrement la dernière dans ses bras à lui dire adieu, adieu
Elle a mal sans en avoir l’air pour qu’autour d’elle ceux
Qui la regardent faire ferment les yeux
Pour qu’autour d’elle ceux qui la regardent faire n’y voient que du feu

Refrain (x2) :
Je t’aime, je t’aime
Maman, maman
Je t’aime passionnément
Je t’aime, je t’aime
Maman, maman
Je t’aime simplement

J’ai pas su trouver les mots
Pour te parler, je sais
Mais je pense être assez grand
Alors aujourd’hui j’essaie
Tu l’as bien compris je crois
Je t’aime en effet
Tu l’as bien compris je crois
Je t’aime pour de vrai (x5)
Tu l’as bien compris je crois
Je t’aime en effet
Tu l’as compris je crois
Je t’aime pour de vrai
Oh Maman
Je t’aime pour de vrai (x2)
Je t’aime, je t’aime pour de vrai

France… Food… Fire

 France…  Paris

You know the feeling when your plane finally landed and you felt the wheels touched the ground?  Oh, you would say, “Thank God, I’m here!” And how you would like to clap your hands to express how wonderful was your flight.  Have you ever felt that way?  Well, with me…  Almost all the time…  🙂

This is one of the images that are posted on the walls at the baggage claim area (Aeoroport charles degaulle)

So last 3 days ago V picked me up in the airport and before we headed to our hotel, we decided to have our lunch first.  We passed this Chinese Restaurant where we dined sometime last year, so that I asked him if we would be having some chinese food for lunch.  But V suggested that we should go to an Italian Restautant this time, to where we haven’t had gone before, and it was like two blocks away from the  Chinese Restaurant.

Food

I really enjoyed my food plus the wine of course…

Then smoke all over…  We could smell the fire…

Fire

And you know where was the fire?

Oh you wouldn’t believe it, but The Chinese Restaurant was on fire.  So I took my camera right away and started shooting… The Firemen came to the rescue at once!

I gathered that the fire started in the kitchen.

Well, I did not catch the fire because it was put out so quickly by the firefighters and here are some of the photos I shot:

 

Anyways that night V and I were also on Fire in our Hotel

And here we were the following day in front of our apartment getting ready for our trip to Center France…

 July 26, 2014

*** As of the moment we are back  to Paris and we are getting ready for our  next trip to Barcelona on Wednesday,  I just took this time to update you with our Duets Music Passion …

and to update you with my one week holiday 🙂 Stay tune for more fun guys…  I love you, mmmwahhhh

Smiling Thoughts…

 

 

 

When I met you I tasted life
Like a bud, I blossom, I breathe

Never again would I strife
For your love and care are so deep

Smiling thoughts of you conquered me
In the morn when I make my coffee,

When I eat, or laugh you’re with me,
And everywhere it’s you I see,

Along the road, those lovely trees,
At my work with my Apple breeze,

These words I’m writing now, I grace
Because you put smile on my face

You’re the best part of my everyday
And at night when I lay down to sleep

Still there you are all over me
Smiling thoughts of you lingers great!

2010

V and I met in IMVU,  January, 2010.   Our avatars just clicked together, hehehe.  After 6 months dating on the web, we decided to meet in person.

He introduced me to his family and friends.   Our True Romance started here in the Land Of Love- Paris. I visited him 3x in this year.  21 days in July.  A week in September. And another week in November.

2011

In this year I visited him 2x.  A week  in July and then  another week before Christmas.  But take note that we are always online everyday in Skype, since our Romance started in 2010 and up to now.   That’s how we take care of our Long Distance Relationship.  He’s now sleeping and snoring as I write this post.  hehehe 🙂

2012

Again 2x in this year.  21 days in my July vacation and then again last week of December to New Year’s Eve.

2013

I spent my summer with him in August  for a week and then another week by November.

 

2014

And here I am getting ready  to spend 10 exciting days with my love.  Wow! After like 8 months… !  So you wouldn’t imagine how excited we are to be together again in flesh, hehehe.    I will be flying this Thursday (tomorrow to be exact, July 24) to Paris.  Then from Paris, we’ll fly to Barcelona.  This is my first time to visit Spain.  I will finally see the country where my ancestors came from. Yiheyyy! 🙂

 

And on December, it’s V’s turn to pay me a visit and meet my family too…  🙂

I will be  keeping you posted.
Thank you guys and I love you all!
mmmmwahhhh
