Naples, Florida, USA

I have met so many wonderful people all over the world that live in beautiful places and therefore decided to share some photographs of where I live. We have lived in beautiful Naples, Florida in the USA since moving here from South Africa thirteen years ago. A favorite saying of mine is, "Bloom where you are planted!" We have done just that!

  3. Dear Ingrid,

    What a beautiful place to live in; the white sands, blue see, the wildlife. To me it looks like a holiday resort :-)! Wish I could come over and see it all 'live'. Hopefully one day I will.

    Wish you a happy weekend!

    Lieve groet, Madelief

  7. I've heard of how beautiful Naples, FL is but have never seen the landscape, it's so diverse! I love the pictures of the sea shells at shore, it must be heavenly to be a bird on the shore.

  9. Dear Ingrid,

    How gorgeous! I love that saying! Your post has allowed me to take a visual trip to Naples, Florida and it's lovely! I could sit on that beach for hours and just watch the waves!

    Thank you for your visits and most of all for your thoughtful comments...isn't it wonderful to have a wonderful spouse?

    Stop by if you get a chance...my Sunday post is a gift to my friends in the Land of Blog!

  11. Hello Ingrid,
    With the exception of the beautiful white beaches, it reminds me very much of southern CA. In a word, your world is GORGEOUS! Thank you for sharing it with us!
    Happy day to you,
