ABC in Words and Pictures: To Day B and C


Since I've been more or less laying with my Toe as my highest point in the past, I'm a bit after schedule with the ABC challenge. However, I take to Letters to day: B and C.
The original ABC challenge derived from Petunia in Norway, but since my Blog is written in a kind of English, I've given me a double challeng: The objects must begin with the same letter or sound in both Norwegian and English. How about that? Letter A was simple, cause it was a photo of Anna.

Here is todays first:
B for Boats or Båter
(Boat - Båt)

Here you see some small Ferry Boats in the town of Strömstad at the Swedish West Coast.
These ferries brings people out to the Islands in the very popular archipelago outside the town. Very popular during the Summer Months, both by Swedes and Norwegian, as Strömstad is very close to the Norwegian Border. It's seems hard to believe how lively it will be around in this Harbour only some months from now.

Here is the second:
C for Cats or katter (Cat and katt)


An easy choice for a Cat-lover. Here are Rosa and Felicia. They are more or less of the Manx breed. Look at this short YouTube clip.

Petunia in Norway startet this challenge . Go and have a look.

PS. We will be away over the weekend

Take care of that toe Tor. You certainly have had a go of it haven't you?

Have a terrific day. Big hug to you and Anna. :)

I hope you are taking good care of that toe. Have a good weekend.
My Dad passed away today. I will miss him, even if it is kindest for him to have gone. He suffered so. But it is hard.

To nydelige Manx. Jeg har en sånn jeg også, ved navn Pusifer, og hun er veldig lik din Felicia.

Katter er da bare praktfulle, hva. Så super løsning på oppgaven.

De ser litt stusselige ut der de ligger båtene,men snart er de i fullt arbeid igjen:)

Nydelige katter du har,kan jo skjønne at de må være med i dag,nåe du til og med tenker at bokstavene skal matche to språk.

Ha en flott fredag:)

Ja, du får en ekstra utfordring ved å skulle skrive på engelsk, men at det skal likevel være norsk eller høres ut som norsk. Men det skal bli artig å følge med på hvordan du løser det! Bra valg for B og C da. Pusene var kjemesøte:))

That will be a great challenge, one and the same letter for two languages. But you made it work out good so far. Nice photoes. Especially I liked the one with the two cats, because I just love cats, and these two are cute :) Have a nice weekend! :)

Strømstad er travel om sommeren ja. Vi har pleid å være på Koster, der er det utrolig idyllisk og deilig. Ha en fin helg og god bedring med tåa.
