An Icelandic Lullabye

I read this on an Icelandair Flight and something about it just stayed with me,
apologies for any linguistic errors in the Nordic version.

Bi, bi og blaka,

alftirnar kvaka,

eg laet sem eg sofi,

en samt mun eg vaka.

Bium bium bamba,

bornin litlu ramba

fram um fjallakamba

ao leita ser lamba.

Bye Bye and Hushabye,

Can you see the swans fly?

Now Half asleep in bed I lie,

Awake with half an eye.

Heyho and welladay,

Over hills and far away,

Thats where the little little children stray

To find the lambs at play.

The Vagabond

Give to me the life I love, Let the lave go by me, Give the jolly heaven above And the byway nigh me. Bed in the bush with stars to see, Bread I dip in the river - There's the life for a man like me, There's the life for ever. Let the blow fall soon or late, Let what will be o'er me; Give the face of earth around And the road before me. Wealth I seek not, hope nor love, Nor a friend to know me; All I seek, the heaven above And the road below me. Or let autumn fall on me Where afield I linger, Silencing the bird on tree, Biting the blue finger. White as meal the frosty field - Warm the fireside haven - Not to autumn will I yield, Not to winter even! Let the blow fall soon or late, Let what will be o'er me; Give the face of earth around, And the road before me. Wealth I ask not, hope nor love, Nor a friend to know me; All I ask, the heaven above And the road below me. Robert Louis Stevenson

The Cove

Watch It and Weep 

Cuttlefish Self Reflection at Oceanographic in Valencia

Cuttlefish are revered for their beautiful Light Displays and communicative intelligence, I was lucky to catch this little guy wondering how the F he managed to get caught up in all this shit. Poor thing, he just wanted out and all he got was a 2 x 4 with tap happy tourists. Watch the Cove and tell me you still think we should keep any animal life in Captivity that Isn't on the endangered species List.

Blue Gardens and Summer Nights

'so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past'

With BaZ Luhrman and Leo DiCaprio signing on for a Sydney based version, I sure do hope they make good and proper of a True classic. Xx L

Patati Patata Montreal

A tiny little cafe in the middle of Montreal, serving that oh so famous Canadian "cuisine" Poutine. Everything here is little, bar the servings of fries which could eliviate even a horse of its wild apetite. 

Burgers come at $2 a pop and covered in home made sauce. The vibe is hot and the beer is cold. Step into 4177 St-Laurent and fill that void.
