Someone is getting ready for delivery… 10½ months right now so it could be just about any day!

Seems like Junior is leaning to the side…

But whenever he decides to pop out, there will be milk waiting for it!

Arwen cutting the lawn at the Eden office…

…with a belly that is growing sideways!

The latest changes is that Arwen & Sahara was now buddies and do everything together again.

As much as I love to ride, I also love to see the joy on the horses when they are let lose in an open terrain (more precisely, my brother’s garden!).

Sometimes, when Amadeus the goat frustrates me too much, I think of sending him to the market and exchanging him for someone more… grateful.

Perhaps someone like this one…? (and yes, that is Munir doing his homework in the background…)

But then I look at Amadeus again and his endless silliness sort of charms me, although he […]

Weekends for me mean an obligatory horse back ride in to the Nigerien bush!

Last week, my sister and I had one of our greatest rides ever, and how fortunate then that I decided to bring the camera!

Riding out of Zinder only takes a moment (10 minutes)

Having crossed the main road, most of the buildings between […]
