I long to ride a bike, dance, whistle, look at the world, feel young and know that I’m free.
Anne Frank
A visit to the hiding place where Anne Frank wrote her diary during the second World War will be a visit you will never forget. Unfortunately photography was not permitted in the house, but the impact of experiencing the small rooms where the family lived for two years in mostly silence leaves an imprint on the heart that won’t be easily forgotten.

On a side note…this is what I woke up to on my first morning in Virginia…
view from the farm
And speaking of leaving an imprint on the heart…later in the day I took a walk with my daddy…
And this is the beauty we experienced…
Also a feeling I’ll always remember…
No words can express what you experienced with your daddy today my friend…no words except yours…I love you to the moon and back and MORE!!! Gh
Thank you my sweet!
Love these pictures especially the one with the shadow!
Thanks! Yep, it’s really a special capture to me!
Stunning vista from the farm, the shadows you form together is so sweet…
Thank you Anyes! I’m cherishing the days that we still have the farm!
I love how you have juxtaposed all these deep memories of your heart, Robin, into this one post. I was thinking about you and your parents yesterday, hoping and praying you’re all well, so I was glad to see these images this morning. THANK YOU.
Thanks Ginnie always for your support!
These memories will always stay. Spend as much time with your father/parents as possible. Enjoy every second of it. The golden light on those trees are fabulous. The picture of your shadows says it all. Pictures say more than a thousand words.
Anne Frank is the symbol for a lot of people undergoing the same fate…
So true about the symbolism of Anne Frank. Thanks so much Astrid!
I know you treasure the time you have with him/them as I do with my mom who is 88 and still in good health. We can only hope we live as long…..take care, my friend. Love the pics of your trip!
Thanks Kathy! So wonderful that your mom is still in good health!
I had fun catching up with your posts. I feel like I’ve been on a whirl wind trip around the world with you! Your love of travel comes through in everything you write and capture.
A few of my fav photos are the pedestrian tunnel and you and your dad’s shadows, what a great way to show the two of you together, it reminded me of your feet photos :)))
btw ~ there is not techie word for drips. It’s part of the fun of painting … splashing, dripping, swirling, spraying, smushing all these terms work great 🙂
Oh good…glad I didn’t sound so stupid trying to describe my love of your work! Thanks so much for dropping in…and you remember the feet photo!
What a remarkable and interesting life you must lead.
