  5. Did he manage to get it going? The son seems to have lost his interest? I really like the picture with your text!

  6. Love this - love the story it tells. Love that circle of water and the figure and the little boat. Nothing like messing about in boats, said someone....Mr Toad I think? Or was it Ratty?

  7. J'adore cette scène de l'homme jouant comme un enfant et baignant son petit bateau dans les rides du ciel (du moins on le dirait)
    J'ai raconté une fois que lorsque j'étais enfant, nous faisions de petits bateaux dans un bois du style balza : un palmier que nous allions chercher en brousse avec mes frères. Avec l'écorce nous faisions des petites pointes. Nos bateaux avaient la forme de celui là.
    Je crois qu'au fond de nous, nous sommes pour toujours les enfants que nous avons été
