Ok, ok.... it seems as there was somebody laughing last time about the lonely red tomatoe...

Our balcony is becoming a green oasis... with red dots.... Great, isn't it?

Finally...

I proudly present the first red tomatoe this year. Isn't it beautiful...

Bettina

Good Bye...

This little fellow was only seen from behind... What a pity....

I think it's time to leave the zoo and return to our balcony.
Goodness knows, maybe there are some news.

See ya.

It's not clear who's watching whom, is it?

Yes, believe it or not... We have lots of tomatoes on our balcony...
It was an experiment. We had only hoped for a few fruits but not that many.
Of course, we do have our fingers crossed that they turn red.

And tomorrow - after some time - animals...

Flourishing Balcony - II

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 19:54:00 +0200

As it should be for a proper balcony there are also sunflowers on our balcony,

And tomorrow I'll show you something that is not usual for balconies but for gardens or greenhouses.

See you...

Bettina

Flourishing Balcony

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 21:02:14 +0200

Our balcony is prospering and flourishing after a warm and sunny spring...

Therefore you'll get some impressions of what I mean in the next few days.

Aerial View

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 21:21:00 +0200

As you can see this was taken during the flight back to cold rainy Germany. It shows the south western part of Portugal... Nice isn't it?

So, this was it... Hope to see you soon...

Bye,
Bettina

Los Gigantes

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 21:20:00 +0200

Although there is another photo tomorrow this is the last one of Tenerife. It shows the famous rock formation "Los Gigantes". This view was almost the view from the hotel room. And even though I saw this every day - I couldn't get enough of it...

Teide - IV

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 21:19:00 +0200

Finally, another shot taken from a viewpoint. Here you can see the snow at the peak of the volcano I was talking about yesterday.

I have two more photographs I want to show you. But I won't tell you what it is. You have to come back to see...

Bettina

Teide - III

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 21:18:00 +0200

As you can see it was very sunny above the cloud border. But what you can't see - it was terribly cold. There also was snow right there where I was standing... Unbelievable.

Tomorrow the last photo of the volcano.

Bettina

Teide - II

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 21:17:00 +0200

So, today a closer look at the famous volcano.

Did you know, that the Teide is the third highest volcano on a volcanic ocean island? No? If you want to learn more, have a look here:

Tomorrow: a look from the peak.

Bettina

Teide - I

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 21:16:00 +0200

Hi,

sorry for the delay - I was quite busy the last few days.

Ok, the next days some impressions of the volcano "Pico del Teide". Let's start with a view from far away, taken from a viewpoint in the northwest of Tenerife.

Come back tomorrow for a closer look.

El Medano

bettina.bertram@web.de (Bettina) — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 21:12:00 +0200

The wind in El Medano was amazing.

No wonder why this area is deemed to be the paradise for surfer and everyone who's interested in any kind of water sports.
