Good afternoon/morning everyone.
A very warm day here again.
I have found a frog living in a large flat container I was trying to revive some plants in (unsuccessfully).
It has filled up with rain water and I was going to empty it to make some space in my garden but can't do it now as froggy needs it so it will have to wait.
Hope everyone has a Happy Sunday!

Happy Sunday for you too. It is nice of you that you let the froggy have his own little "pool" in your container.:)

Daughter is unwell. I'm sure all that swimming and ice cream when it's barely 26 C played a role... Hope she's getting stronger for that.
Some pictures from the animal fair.
We were greeted by some cute, albeit a little dirty, piglets by the entrance:

Daughter and I participated in a cooking workshop. Our role was to make pancakes out of rye flour ( :eek: ) for everyone. We did fine, although at one point, one other participant, an older boy, either fainted from the heat or had an epileptic seizure... Reminded me of my dad, and I was so upset that a few of the last pancakes had to be thrown away...

I didn't buy any of these tomatoes and cucumbers and am regretting this. Maybe I should head back tomorrow, if daughter is well enough... View attachment 241421

Some animals could be touched, which we loved!

And we even got to see a few cats! Purr-fect!

All kids looked like they were having fun.

That looks like a really lovely place for animals and people and a "heaven" for children. Is it far away from where you live ? I bet your daughter would love to spend more days there.
The tomatoes and cucumbers look fresh and tasteful. I love these little "cherry" tomatoes ( so they are called ). They have much more taste and flavor like big tomatoes.
Have a purr-fect day once again there. :):)

I have had a wonderful day of tennis. We arrived in time to see the last of the wheelchair men’s singles final and the start of the wheelchair ladies singles final before we moved to watch the main attraction, the Ladies Singles Final.

Sloane Stephens (USA) v Simona Halep (Romania) was a fantastic match - very well played and very close, but Halep won in the end.

Then the Mens Doubles Final where French duo Herbert & Mahout were playing Austria/Croatia Marach & Pavic.

Needless to say the French crowd was supporting their men and they won. Lovely moments at the end when Mahut’s young son ran onto court to hug his Dad and the crowd spontaneously started singing the French national anthem.

Our viewpoint for the Ladies final when they cared where you sat

This lady read her book throughout the match ... apart from the last 5 points!

Looks like a perfect day for watching tennis live, or was it to hot ? I am not interested in tennis but the mood in the arena while the matches would be interesting for me too. Like you described it: The french crowd supported their players.

No problem, :)
I was going to change his name to Riley at one time but he seems used to Lola - or maybe that should be I'm used to it. He probably doesn't give a hoot!
Lola is a good name! Even for a male. I think he don`t care about the female name. He is acting like a little princess. The name fits to him.:)
