WARNING: Rant ahead
From the "what's the fucking point?" department. Here's a bus shed. In a country of wind and rain. Apart from the fact that it's godawful ugly and gray (gray!), it doesn't serve its purpose in the least. What kind of bad trip must the designer have been on when they decided that metal mesh is the best protection against rain and wind? I hope they will be reborn as a toilet brush.
Actually... there is at least one more nest somewhere under the roof.
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! We have a strong suspicion that a marten family lives up there too. Ours is not a house, it's a veritable biotope.
It appears that our first attempt at planting flowers hasn't been the success we hoped for. But by a happy coincidence, our local supermarket has flower seeds on offer, so we're ready for the second round. This time, we'll wait until the temperatures are well above +15°C before sowing the seeds.
But before we dove into IKEA, we paid a visit to Billig Blomst (a discount flower and plant store). I couldn't help snapping all the beautiful flowers they had.
We decided it's time to make a pilgrimage to the Church of IKEA. So we left the bubble of our house and traveled all the way to Aalborg. After more than two months of staying put, it feels like a major undertaking.
