The cave of the yellow dog! A great movie!

In de schitterende weidsheid van het Mongoolse landschap
leeft een nomadenfamilie met zijn kudde schapen.
De oudste dochter Nansal vindt in een grot een zwerfhond
die ze Zochor noemt. Ze houdt hem tegen de wil
van haar vader die bang is dat hij contact met de
wolven heeft gehad. Op een dag verdwaalt Nansal
op de steppe en ze komt bij een oude vrouw
die haar de regels van reïncarnatie uitlegt: de ziel
verhuist van lichaam naar lichaam tot ze een hond wordt
om daarna, in zeldzame gevallen, als mens
geboren te worden. Moet hond Zochor zo meteen
alleen achterblijven, als het gezin zijn tenten
opbreekt en verder trekt?
 


The little nomad girl Nansal finds a baby dog in the mongolian
field, who becomes her best friend - against all rejections
of her partents. Only as the little dog, Zochor, saves the
life of the youngest son, father and mother finally
see his good soul. A story about a mongolian family
of nomads - their traditional way of life and the
rising call of the City.

Splendid film, which I have seen in the cinema a few
years ago and which I have bought to see more.
This movie is certainly recommended.

Wateringen, Molen van Wateringen! Mill, Wateringen!


A mill called 'Windlust', Wateringen!

The flour mill was established in 1869,
replacing an earlier wipkorenmill at the
same place, established in 1326.
In 1930 the wind power was turned off
and the mill felt into disrepair.
In 1969 the mill was purchased by
"Friends of the Water Mill". On May 1, 1972
the restoration was completed and the
mill was back into use, with only one
pair of stones. 
Below the mill is a store located, where
flour of the mill is sold.

Lila and darkblue lace and my own bijoux store!


I am inspired to make little pillows of lila and darkblue lace,
filled with a little lavender and wattine.
But sometimes fails me
the time to make them. We (my daughter and I) try
to take over a little bijoux store
on the internet, which requires considerable time.
When the store opens, I will make an announcement.
