sabato, stile siciliano

Sicily - Saturday May 30, 2026

Saturday, Sicilian style.

The vegetable market in the morning.

After lunch a few hours at the beach, a promenade through the beautiful city park and back home on the charming terrace.

In the evening, we chose the surprise of a set daily menu at Osteria Cappellino. A good choice, as it turned out, we were served the most delicious Sicilian dishes.

... and on the way back treated to a beautiful bright full moon!

1st domburg beach day 2018

Sunday at the beach in Domburg. The Dutch North Sea beaches are great, I sometimes just forget about it... Since we live in Dordrecht, we always choose one of the beaches in Zeeland.

We were about the first ones on the beach, except for a few fishermen on the shoreline. Incidentally it was nice and quiet on our beach, totally against my expectations.

The beach is always a lovely place "to play outside" during all seasons and especially during the summer months. When we used to live in The Hague, we went to the beach so often.
In spring and summer, we met after work on our favorite beach between Kijkduin and Scheveningen. At the end of the day, when almost everyone goes home again, it's wonderful on the beach. We used to bring our own picnic basket or ordered something on the beach and stayed until sunset.

Sunday we also stayed on the beach until sunset and we were about the last ones to leave the beach, to take full advantage of these summer days in May!

Ps: The bikini I made the day before, the bikini top is a variation on my crocheted bikini top pattern and the bottom is completely freestyle...
