Hi Annie, Kelly and Joanne, thank you so much for letting me know you are new readers, welcome to the (blog)house! really glad you like it, thank you.

nancy, we speak english most of the time, but i try to encourage french as much as possible, i’d like to be fluent and i’m not exactly that right now!

krissy, go for it! i think we should all use it now – whenever i am out in the sun (like you Emily), my skin goes pink straight away, even if I am not burnt, and everyone always says, “oh you are burning!”. Now I will say “No, I just have colours”.

Nadia, it was indeed.

Jeska, I hope you do come to visit, it really is a beautiful city.

Sofia, it’s the same weather here – it is not at all hot in fact today is windy and rainy!

Katie Cracker nuts – love that name! Brings a smile to my face when i see you ahve left a comment. bummer about the lack of sun.

Esti, cool! I really like this saying. Let’s all use it from now on!

In Spanish is the same as French: “tienes color”

Oh what a lovely way to say it! “Having colours” has been an integral part of my youth and to me it marks the beginning of summer. As much as I try to always wear sunscreen my fair skin always goes a bit pink. I think I would break down if I ever found myself cooped up during the summer. “having colors”, I will have to remember that.

Oooh, it does sound a lot better … oh how I’d like to see the sun. Sydney- and where I am a little north of that – has been overcast for weeks. We get little glimpses of sun and stars (and who knew but there’s a full moon about too) but none of that glorious autumn sun I love. Sigh.

hehhe! your right that’s so much better than the image of being burned by the sun !
Looks like it was a beautiful day in Amsterdam, here too we had a lot of sun but not really hot (can’t wait to stretch out at the swimming-pool under a 30°C sun).

glorious day, and nice words. My husband and I intend to visit Amsterdam at some point this year and I enjoy reading your tales of this city.
