Stop the BlogPress

A WONDERFUL SURPRISE
Papa and Ingelin taking farwell in Buenos Aires. Around Midnight, Sunday Dec 10. (yes, we took photos of the driver and the Taxi number - blondes you know) - What a wonderful time we had together in Argentina + Uruguay, Paraguay and Brazil.

This post is different from what I did plan. The reason is obvious, if you spend some seconds to read.

First thing I did this Monday morning (after our return from Argentina) due to the fact it was a message in our Mail Box when we returned from Argentina:
You have a Mail. It's to large to deliver in your standard Mail Box. You can pick it up at your nearest Post in Shop (yeah, we do have combined local Stores and Post Offices in Norway).

This is the envelope:


Dear Naomi, we will put it under our Christmas Tree and open it on Christmas Eve. We are so excited. And will show the whole blogosphere your gift to us. On Christmas Day. (We can hardly wait - kids you know...)


Naomi, you might recall a movie named "The Mission"? We was there on our Voyage. A Natural wonder, where all location shots were taken. (More to come ...)
flowering Cactuses:


Cactus Wild Forest. Quedabra el Toro (What else - the name I mean - LOL)


Twin Flowers. (More to come...)
Discover the true world at Mrs Lifecruiser. Where the unexcepted allways happens.
Believe it or not, Tuesday, some of my readers are very well aware of Gattina's Cats on Tuesdays, will be dedicated to "Cats we met in Argentina" - (and Uruguay) - believe it or not, it's also interesting for non-cat lovers.

How sweet of Naomi to send you snailMail (and not only eMail) for Christmas - she's a true blogger friend :-)

Welcome back !!! Looks like if you had a wonderful trip and your pictures already give an idea !! Can imagine how you feel now being back in the dark and cold with the moon upside down ! (In Egypt the half moon is laying and not standing) I thought you wouldn't post at all that's why I didn't show up ! (Shame on me) I am sure you will take us on a wonderful Cruise ! I could do honeymoons like that all the time, even alone ! Now I am curious to see your holiday cats !!

Wow, how exciting a biiig parcel. I'd be excited too.

Those cactus flowers are beautiful. Considering the inhospital places cacti grow...and their prickles...they have the most glorious blooms.

Sounds like you've had a wonderful time on your travels, Tor. Can't wait to see the rest of your photos.

Thats awfully nice of Naomi, how exciting :-)

Iguazu is stunning as usual. What a place.

Nice cactus valley. I love cactus flowers. We saw some in Paraguay too, but it was some other kind than this one.
