A cold, but beautiful Pentecost Sunday. We "went" to church in New York City (St. Patrick's) and in the afternoon took a walk around Moss Lake.
Ein kalter, aber schöner Pfingstsonntag liegt hinter uns. Wir sind wieder in New York in die St. Patrick Kathedrale "gegangen" und am Nachmittag um den Moos See gewandert.

We are not quite sure what plant this is, maybe pink wild honeysuckle?
Wir wissen nicht genau, welche Pflanze das hier ist. Vielleicht rosafarbene Heckenkirschen?

Schöne Pfingsttage!
Happy Pentecost, Eva. Moss Lake is beautiful; a lovely and peaceful place to walk.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! We like to go there. I was surprised that we were not the only people there. Parking is difficult, there are just about five parking spots. If you are not careful, your car ends up in the lake.
DeleteI remember my dad pitching balls to me when I was Flora's age :) Very American pictures: playing ball on the green grass on a sunny day. With Flora's dress, you could imagine it was days past . . old time baseball :)
ReplyDeleteThe cookies look very good!
Did you recognize the dress? It was in the last box you sent :). It looks handmade. Peter used to do this with Jonathan (pitching), but the girls have never been interested in baseball. Flora loves to spend time with Jonathan, so the two like to play together. Today, Miriam joined them.
DeleteI thought the dress looked a bit familiar, but I couldn't see the print :) Chanda says it's so nice to see Flora wearing it. She and Morgana made the dress with some help from our friends Janet and Camille . . though she also says that she thinks Morgana did most of the work. I'm glad Flora enjoys wearing it! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteSo nice to hear that the two of them made the dress. It looks good on Flora, I think.
DeleteDas sieht nach einem schönen Spaziergang aus. Das Bild von den Kindern im Baum ist witzig. :-)
ReplyDeleteJa, ich habe eben vier Affentöchter!
Delete:-D Das ist gut, sie klettern und bewegen sich!
