Greenland

        

My husband came back from Greenland today, after one week at the beautiful island. Here is some of the pictures he took. Icebergs, still here, but not long. The ice is melting very fast, much faster than expected. This is sad and very worrying.

About the relation between Denmark and Greenland

 wikipedia:

Greenland is a self-governing Danish province located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. Though physiographically and ethnically an Arctic island nation and geographically a part of the continent of North America, politically and historically Greenland is associated with Europe, specifically Iceland, Norway, and Denmark. In 1978, Denmark granted home rule to Greenland, making it an equal member of the Rigsfællesskab (community). Greenland is, by area, the world’s largest island which is not a continent in its own right.

Autumn colours

Sunshine today, but not tomorrow, I have been  told. That information made me go “colored autumn-leaves” hunting. I have a lot now, to use at rainy days.

Watch the dog

Is this a watch dog, or a dog that should be watched…?

These apples from my garden is called Cox orange. I found a very nice homepage about this and other apples, – take a bite here.
