The end of the longest night

This was the extraordinary pink sunrise that I watched as it slowly enriched the entire sky this morning. I am looking to the southwest in the main, away from the rising sun which is just starting to shine on the mountains in the distance.

To take the extra (which maybe should be the main?) I was facing west about 10 minutes later. The colour was starting to fade, but was still impressive.

The view from A&J's living room once again provides wonderful Blip opportunities.

The sleepover was a great success. Bean loved spending time with dogs Willow and Tui. We ate well. The docos were fascinating. The chat was nonstop. 

Then the horror about the US bombing of Iran this morning was shared and deep. 

I cannot bear the arrogance, the cruelty, the brinksmanship, the egotism, the chest-beating. All that I can say is that with every fibre of my being I know it is WRONG on every level.

I am way behind with Blips...
