Hello lovely ladies,
Today I have a card from Taiwan with a quote:
"Memories are just fragments of what's already gone - Caelus"
I'd never heard of Caelus and looked him up on Wikipedia:
Caelus or Coelus was a primal god of the sky in Roman myth and theology, iconography, and literature (compare caelum, the Latin word for "sky" or "the heaven", hence English "celestial"). The deity's name usually appears in masculine grammatical form when he is conceived of as a male generative force.
The quote sounds more like a definition and the author is a god? It doesn’t make much sense to me. Anyway let’s continue.
The stamp is quite pretty.
It's supposed to be a night view of the capital Taipei. Here are some internet photos of Taipei:
But the tower on the stamp doesn’t feature on the photos.
What I’ve seen of it so far, it’s beautiful.
I also saw some interesting rocks and of course had to photograph those too.
Before going to Sardegna, we stayed at some friends near Frosinone ( between Rome and Naples). They are our Danish neighbours’ best friends and we have known them for years.
I hadn’t seen their holiday home yet and I must admit, although it is up a mountain track, the views are spectacular.
Here they are. They are such a nice couple. She works from home and he flies up and down.
The view is as said, spectacular!
This is the nearby village of Serrone with my friend’s dog Roxy.
But today is the T-Party hosted by Bluebeard and Elizabeth, so a drink is in order:
Cheers!
In the wrong order (Blame Blogger), but this is a nice cappuccino and brioche for breakfast at a cafe in Civitavecchia where we took the ferry to Sardegna.
Last but not least my glass of wine when we had a pizza in Serrone.
That is all from me today. It’s hot and we are probably going to the beach.
Happy T-Day all!
Hugs,
Lisca

You are having quite an adventure Lisca How did the camper get to the island? (By ferry I guess?) Sardinia looks really lovely, as does your breakfast brioche. Yum. I'm going to check out your FRiday post to see what else you have been up to. Happy T day. hugs-Erika
This is wonderful you can travel and visit friends-gorgeous views up on the mountain-awesome she can work from home-the foods look delicious enjoy the rest of your week hugs Kathy
Interesting rock formations indeed and oh, the views. A pool and the ocean, wonderful.
Enjoy your day at the beach, here it sadly cooled down.
HOT here too Lisca! What an interesting rock!! Good to see you traveling and visiting friends! Happy T day! Hugs! deb
What a beautiful set of photos. I love the Mediterranean rocky peaks and the deep blue water. I haven’t been there in a long time — I had great visits to Sicily and Corsica, but never your destination.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Wow - magical place. So cool! They are lucky and so are you. What a wonderful post, Lisca. I am so jealous of your adventure (in a good way). Lovely drink picture too. Big hugz
A very true quote on this card. Wonderful photos and the food looks amazing. Have a very nice day today
This is my second attempt to publish this. The first comment disappeared in a whoosh. I had trouble understanding that quote on the postcard. Not sure why, but I do like the postage stamp.
Nice you, your friend, and her dog Roxy were able to spend time with old friends. The views from their deck are stunning. Such lovely green and beauty. I also like the rock formations you photographed.
I had to laugh at your breakfast cappuccino and brioche on that island. This is something you would NOT see here in the states: an ashtray on the table.
Thanks for sharing your various drinks and your continued trip with us for T this Tuesday, dear Lisca.
Great postcard and good food. But that view steals the show. How blessed you are to go visit these friends. Happy T Day, Lisca.
Looks like you are having a lovely time, Happy T Day Elle/EOTC xx
Beautiful photos and good food too. It seems like you had great time visiting this place. Cappuccino is interesting too.
Happy T-day!
Gods are capricious. Who knows what they mean, even themselves 😺 Wow on the views! and the breakfast and pizza! I hope you get to enjoy a day at the beach. Happy T Day
Always a lovely post.
