GMTA!
Yes, I know, it is early for a Saturday morning, but I'm at work :-(
Thought it was time to have a break, and watched yesterdays sunsets: very nice!
See you all later!

Good Morning Karin!

Yes, I am an early bird over here, unfortunately I have been getting up early all my life that I have a hard time sleeping in. It's nice though. Coffee anyone if anyone is up?

Lights on but nobody is home...

Mornin' Eileen! Already lunch time here! Still have some work to do, although I hope I will be finished soon (think so) and go home early.

You deserve to go home! It's Saturday!

Dawn

first light for today

GMTA!

well, I have to work tomorrow as well, IVF goes on all days! But it's only short days in the weekend, and they are special days, with only few patients around. And I'll be off on Monday and Tuesday!
nice B&W capture:

That's good though that you have Mon & Tues off and that weekends are short. Last year our lab worked on Saturdays from Aug until Dec and by the end we were all tired from working 6 days a week.



Mornings are so pretty on Bonaire and here at home. I guess that one good thing about being an early riser!

Good Morning Grendal!

Eileen, you work in a lab too??? Tell me more about it!
yes, a 6 day week is too much!
love dawn at Bonaire too!

OK, I can do the ICSI now, and after that I will go home, see you later!
early boat?

Karin, I work for a Mining Exploration Company, our lab analyses samples that can be traced to mineral body and then to a mine. I do reporting, quality control, assist the supervisors. Great atmosphere to work in but we all have our days!

1st fish in the background.

Bye for now Karin!

Good morning ladies,
Is it a girls talk this morning ? Where are the guys ?
I was so busy reading Cynde and Kelly trip report I missed the sunrise. Thanks for posting.
Don't be jealous, but I slept till 9.00 AM !

Good Morning Martine! I also have the 'Husband snores too loud' problem. Another reason I can not sleep in. I can hear him right now upstairs!

Beautiful morning colours!

Aha, Eileen, then you must understand MY problem then...
We are just going to the pizzeria down the street for lunch. See you later.

Enjoy your lunch Martine!

Hi, early weekend BT-ers.
I slept in till.... 10.00 am!! Sometimes I can be very lazy when the weekend starts! I go and read the trip report from Cynde and Kelly...


Grendel is not angry anymore, for forgetting his pictures at the CC thread a couple of days ago.

Good Morning Diana! 10am! Wow!!

Some fish bits.

Even more fish bits!

Peekaboo!

Bye for now! I'm off to the gym and then groceries!

See you later Eileen. So already 3 lab people here! Although we all do rather different work. I'm home now, everything went very quick, luckily there is not much traffic in the weekend, so you're home even quicker than usually.
nice dark colours

Good morning all!
Nice capture of a smile Eileen
I've got some work 2 do 2day, so I did some chores in the house this morning and I'm working now (u're not alone Karin). At least I can peek at the cams...

What's up with the smiling fishes on the left?

Stripes...

Sniff... there's nobody 2 play with me...

I'm back! I have to do some vacuuming today too. I feel like baking something, flan/tortenboden.

One of our neighbours is getting married today, so we are all excited to go. I have lots of decorations to decorate their house!

Some from the archives...

Good idea Eileen, I have been thinking about baking something too!
nice golden beach, better than the rain here

Is it raining in Leidschendam??? Here in Noordwijk the sun is shining.
Although the view is definitely not the same..

sun and rain play hide and seek here! Drops are falling, and then the sun is out for a few seconds again. Our cat is confused ;-)
and the view,.... sigh
Grendel saw something again

and a fish

oven is on already, making carrot cake

Grendel is probably looking for someone who can entertain him.

a fish

MMMM, doubles and MMM smell of baking!
I'm as good with plants as I am with baking...
Now, the laundry is calling

MMMMM Carrot Cake! Probably will smell yummy when it's in the oven!

Jo in the distance!

OOOOOPS! wrong pic! I saw that Diana posted the above pic already!

Here is the one!

And Karin posted it too! (Triples! GMTA!)

Ha Eileen, I was already looking at the reef critters, to see how you could make Jo out of the pics...

Morning everyone! A quick hello...I'm being sworn into the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary this morning, then we are going to Knotts Berry Farm for the day Have a great day all!

Congratulations Cynde! I wish you a wonderful Day!!

Have a great day, Cynde. and congratulations from me too.

Hi, Cynde! I enjoyed your trip report. Congrats on your CG project and have fun at the farm!

Satch in the distance and boat coming!

We were just outside talking to the groom and he is getting excited for this afternoon. The weather is supposed to be really nice all day!

Good morning Eileen, Diana, Cynde, Margarite, Martine, Igor and Karin...Thanks for the posts...great animated sunrise there, Igor! What will Annie do when she gets back?
Looks like lots of waves again today...

Have lots of housework to do, getting air conditioning fixed (after 2 weeks with it at 88-90 in the house at night).

Here's another fish nose and a few wrasses synchronizing their swim

Hello Barbara, I'm also busy with some housework (but always more priority to look at the BT pages!!)

Hi, Diana...guess we can both keep up on the postings today...looks like everyone else will be busy! Wonder if Cynde will get a coast guard uniform? A couple of fish have criss crossed to look like a bird here..

Wonder if it is a 'non-boat-dive to small wall' today. Not much action of boats..

I am here too Barbara, just doing some home work too. How are you gal ?
Congrats Cynde ! Wich kind of uniform will you get ? A Pamela Anderson's kind ?
It's definitely a girls talk today. It's raining too here, but thanks God, we needed some water. It was dramatically dry and they started to limit the water consommation. We have great forest fires down in the south of France, terrible.
Girls you gave me some ideas regarding baking something tasty. I am thinking about cheery cake...

Hi, Martine...I am pretty good...have a quiet weekend...next week will be having my daughters 14th birhtday with lots of kids in the house for a sleepover while I will be trying to pack for Hawaii! All that baking going with pastries coming out of the oven while I feel like I'm in an oven! I'm promised cool air in a few hours now!

Hawaii! Can I come??? What a busy day on our street! We are all organizing rides for this afternoon!

Bluebeards in waiting!

Of course you can come, Eileen! I think we will be packing a group in our suitcases!
Looks like the wrasses are pacing back and forth today

I wonder if Martine will tell us what the surprise was for Annie at the airport?

Barbara, when do you leave to Hawaii? (not jealous...).
Hi Martine, I don't give you advice for baking something, because I never made cake or pie .
We are almost ready to prepare dinner. Some pasta dish, with some Rose.

We leave on August 9 for a week...all that vacationing on Bonaire forced me to plan the trip....Bon was just a bit too far to get from a pair of very aging parents right now...Dinner sounds great...I am still at morning coffee time!
time for a new thread I think...

Of course I tell you. I handle Cyprus Airways in Paris, so I asked the Cyprus Airways manager in Paris to send a telex to Cyprus Airways in London Heathrow just to wish Annie and Trevor a nice flight and to remind them in case the plane was full and upgrading needed. But no trace of Annie and Trevor on Cyprus Airways... My surprise failed :o(

What a great surprise that would be, Martine! Wonder where they went?
New thread here... Saturday calm continues...

Jean Paul has just left to buy a LOTO ticket. If we win, Barbara, we meet in Hawaïï, and of course, Diana and Eileen, you'll be our guests...

That would be GREAT...reminds me it's lotto day here too..maybe I should tryp and we'll take the whole BT crowd!
