Monday Morning Photo - Wisteria Time in Andalucia

How quickly spring comes around after the short winter here in the Sierra Sur de Jaén. After lots of very much needed rain we´re back to the normal cloudless blue.  My garden is shooting incredbily with the moisture and now sunshine. And my beautiful wisteria flowers grandly albeit it short-lived. The big black carpenter bees love it. Each flowering season reminds me of the Botanical Gardens in Malaga and the ´tunnel´ of wisteria that I haven´t yet caught in bloom. April is a good time to plan to go if it´s on your list.  Here´s the botanical garden link La Concepción Botanical Gardens. And a sneaky peak at the wisteria. See the Monday Morning Photos list.

Ten of The Best Museums in Oslo

Oslo city is at the top of the 100km Oslofjord stretching down to the Baltic Sea. Flat, clean and easy to travel around I was amazed at the sheer number and variety of museums within the fairly small nautical Oslo city.

Its sea-faring past is obvious if you only read the list of musuems and didn´t know its location a pretty clear image would soon be formed.

Who knew Oslo has more than thirty museums with free entry with an Oslo Pass? I didn´t but I do now, I´ve chosen my top ten, some of which I got to visit some of which I didn´t due to time restrictions but had made my want-to-do list.
