Relax in Klong Muang

Just arrived home from a vacay in Thailand again, this time in the Krabi area, in Klong Muang just outside Ao Nang.

I just Love Thailand! Always good restaurants where ever you go. Here one just at the beach in Klong Muang.

Beeing there for a holiday with a friend made me relax completely, after two week I feel like a new person, swimming, eating good food and just taking in the sun and the warm weather.

The sunsets are amazing too, this one is from the hotel Sofitel Krabi.

Here is a view of the very grand and big hotel, in colonial style.

An example of what you can eat in a resturant close to the hotel, called the Beach Hose Restaurant.

And the beaches in the area was not really crowded, hardly anyone was there.

Hot in Turkey

It has been a year filled with a lot of travel for me. Just came back from Turkey, have been in Avsallar in Turkey, at Sunprime Numa Beach Hotel.

And it was really hot! About 38 degrees (C) or more every day, in the shadow.

The sea was lovely, the hotel had a small beach where you could stay.

The hotel also had a big pool and it was close to the sea.

I have had a long summer. Just spent a week in Turkey. Here a pic from inside the hotel.

I also had a nice buffet at breakfast every day, with fresh fruits like these.

And here you can se the chef that prepared the breakfast, eggs and omelettes and a lot of other good stuff.

Summer in Uppsala

Even if this summer have been really rainy it is now sunny and varm outside. This particular day I was visiting nearby Uppsala.

It was not the best weather but Fyrisån is always beautiful. Even if it was raining.

The magnificent dome, Domkyrkan in Uppsala.

And the last photo is showing a bit of romance by the water.

Clear sea and sun in Baska Voda

I have just returned from a trip abroad, this time I have been in Croatia. Been at the small and very beautiful city of Baska Voda on the Makarska riviera.

This i a pic that show you the color of the sea, lovely!

And the waters are so clear it is really amazing.

Every day I took a walk at the promenade by the sea, looking at the boats, the sea and all the people.

And behind the city we have these big and beautiful mountains.

RIP my dear friend Kisse

Last week I lost my beloved cat Kisse. He was old and sick, but still a big pain and a even greater loss.
Miss you a lot!

You where a wounderful friend, you always waited for me at the door when I came home, you always folloved me on my walks, like a dog, :) And you always stayed with me when I was sick and lay in front on my table when I was working.
So rest in peace Kisse. Always in my heart.

African shopping in Sal

Every morning the fishermen came back from their trips and you could buy fresh fish at the pier of Santa Maria.

And here is what you could find in the restaurants later in the afternoon, looks really good!

It was not really a lot that you could buy there in Sal, one of the Africans islands in the country of Cape Verde.

And the things you found in the shops was a little odd, and big!

Another street in Santa Maria and another shop with turisty things.

Bracelets and stuff like that where very popular, and could easy be find on most of the streets.

Sal, an African island in the sun

Just came home from a vacation from Sal in Cape Verde just outside the west coast of Africa.

Sal is one of the many island of Cape Verde, with a lot of sun and a lot of strong winds. But also besutiful beaches.

I stayed at the Salinas Sea Hotel outside the small town of Santa Maria. A modern hotel just a few years old.

Here is the lobby, of the hotel. Always full of turists, coming or going.

And one pic of the pool with a swim up bar. We where also very close to the sea.

As you can see here, the hotel bar and resturant in front of the sea.

One more pic of that bar, taken from the sea side. A really nice place to relax at, with samba music and a drink.

Here is the hotel beach, with the blue sea. A little too cold for me thu.

You could also sleep and relax in these, or just read a book.

I used these every morning, just outside the hotel, it is really good to stay in shape in the vacation too.

Then you have to eat, I had an all inclusive package on my trip. Here are the desserts one day.
