Cuckoo!
The dark aura i was surrounded by in my last post is gone!
Melted away by the sun...
Softed by love and chased into a dark corner in my heart.
We took a trip down to the area around Princeton to visit beautiful friends and for some of us to play some golf. No need for names...
So while the men were visiting a golfcourse the rest of us visited Lambertville and New Hope ( love that name}.
Two villages on each side of the Delaware river, one in New Jersey and the other one on the Pennsylvania side, with a lot of history to share.
The day was glorious and added some extra beauty to the environment.
Unfortunately it was hard to capture the athmosphere in the villages one more bohemic than the other so the amount of pictures are low.
The villages were connected by a bridge which offered stunning views...
And when we reached the other side and one of the first thing that caught my eyes were this happy door i immediately felt that this was my kind of "hood".
Instead of keeping a trimmed tree natural they had made it fun and decorative and very kidsfriendly by judging of Bella's giggling:)
I felt I was more geographically south than i was and really enjoyed the buldings and the surroundings and later i read that New Hope was chosen as one of the best places in the northeast of the USA to buy a summer vacation home.
I guess I was not the only one with the same positive feeling then...
My youngest daughter did not really pay any attention to the buildings ( could not care less) but loooved all the flowers that edged our way and enhanced the vibrant athmosphere.
An almost hidden bench that probably had a lot to tell if it could talk...
Yes a very pleasant visit and a place i would love to come back to just to get to know it better...
We did not have time to explore Princeton but had a lunch there before heading back.
To see old-new friends again and get to know them better made my heart warm and to explore more of what our beautiful world have to offer added some extra value to my saturday experience.
I could not have asked for a better weekend:)
