Au Revoir

Today we said goodbye to our visitor Gittan from Sweden who has been with us from last Wednesday! She is a blipper and we invited her over so that she could attend the opening night of the blipfoto project life.turns. that is happening at Inspace as part of the Edinburgh Arts Festival.She has been very good company and tonight the house is much quieter without her laughter!
We had some lovely days both weather wise and with her company, she was a big hit with Miss B who loved the Bamse bear umbrella that was brought from Sweden. Also the Wonder Dog was a favorite! We visited the allotment, she went to blipcentral and met the staff, and had fun at Inspace meeting people in 'real' life.
Walks on the shore, on Corstorphine Hill, in Ravelston woods and finally yesterday on Portobello Beach. She loved walking in the city and the very first night here she as given Graham's tour-camera always at the ready.
We had good chats in English (my Swedish is non existent) and found we liked and loved a lot of the same things.
Today we had to say Au revoir, lunch with Graham, Layla, Bella and moi at Pizza Express before big hugs and kisses put Gittan on the bus to the airport! She is now home safely in Sweden.
Thanks Gittan for coming and for your daughter Rosie's CD she has an amazing voice! I have listened to it this evening.
Now I'm tired and allotment day tomorrow. Goodnight!
