A reason to travel to Japan

I allways liked Wisteria. Desperated Housewifes made them famous but I remember my grandparents neighbours house in spring, they had a huge one, of course they were allways complaining about the huge amount of flowers that needed to be sweept away every day but really, who cares, they look and smell amazing.

These pictures are from the Wisteria Tunnel at Kawachi Fuji Gardens in Japan, their website here.

Winter boots

So, there is a beautiful universe of nice winter boots that I was unaware of, until now!

Swiss people wear everything everytime, I'm not sure if they are used to the cold or they just want to wear something different instead of wearing huge winter boots for 4 months in a row!

So for example, its snowing -5ºC and you see Coverse, rubber boots, high heels, leather boots, ballerinas, uggs, winter boots ...

I have cold feet, I'm getting used to the weather and I looove shoes so I was happy to have a excuse to add some stuff to my closet (poor Placid).

I had a little short list of "cute" winter boots, at least cute enougth to be able to wear them and not miss to much my "normal" shoes (maybe when I get used to the weather I will be able to wear them but now its like a litlle esquimal torture!).

I know there might be cheaper boots anywhere (well not in Schwitzerland of course!) but my feet liked those ones.

Placid had to go to NY so I asked him to buy the ones from Ugg (I'm really happy with them) but I'm still in love with number 2... mmmm maybe I'll ask the 3 Kings to bring them in black! (Iin Spain Sant doesn't bring presents we have 3 cool interracial kings that bring stuff on the 5th of January)

There is also some for the guys, Placid is getting these for Christmas (its a surprise, he doesn't read my blog so its ok). 


 Number 1: Short Adirondach Boot II fro Ugg Australia
 Number 2: Sorel Caribou

Number 3: Bean Boots by L.L.Bean, 10" Shearling-Lined

Dogs

I miss my dogs a lot, so much people without pets would think I'm stupid or crazy.

I don't allow myself to think about them and to think about getting one for me here in Zurich, thats the thing I want the most in the world now but I'm not sure the life we have here would be suitable for the kind of dog I want.

And this beautiful pictures from Ellen Kooi don't help to stop thinking about them :-(

What to see happiness? Watch a bunch of dogs running on the beach, the smell, the wind, I don't know, they just get crazy there!


To end up with the "I miss everything" day a picture of the little "bed" Patton made for himself this summer. The dog is bigger than me so image how big the hole is.
