Holiday Week

A L O H A !

Funny how comforting 
small, normal things can be
after special events

The holiday

was delightful -

Hope yours was too ! 














So nice and cozy


The world is quiet
on Christmas night.






This week
we look back on the past year
and ahead to the new.


From my still-point,
to yours:

May the season's magic
  bring you
smiles.

                                             Warmly, cloudia

«Louis» really likes the textures and the contrast between the somewhat fragile leaf against the concrete.

I happened to talk to somebody visiting our building last night who has a boat at the Ala Wai Yacht Harbor and asked if he's seen a concrete boat. He said but nobody's there now. I even asked if that's the same boat that almost sank. He said that's the boat.

No smiles for me on Christmas Day because we had thunderstorms with hailstones the size of golf balls and they broke the skylight in the dining room water everywhere :-(.

Elephant's Child said...

Love the first photo of the leaf - light and shadow are great :) Hope your weekend was merry and bright!

Kay said...

Those are amazing photos of the skies, Cloudia. We're really getting a LOT of cloudy skies and rain over on our side of the island. Got rained on tonight when we went for our walk. Happy Holidays to you, dear friend.

Yes Christmas was delightful Cloudia, with so many young ones around. I have a feeling your Christmas was very special too, all cosy and safe in your new abode, perfect!
