What the dog thought

The dog is thinking: 'Last week I heard her say "sell phone" and I hoped that she was going to get rid of it!'
(My apologies to non-English speakers, the humour probably only works in English.)
The place: The main shopping area in Keswick in the English Lake District.

Bulles.

A MOKORO is a type of canoe commonly used in the Okavango Delta, Botswana. It is propelled through the shallow waters of the delta by standing in the stern and pushing with a pole, in the same manner as punting.
Mekoro are traditionally made by digging out the trunk of a large straight tree, such as an ebony tree or Kigelia tree.

A place of great strategic importance for many centuries, Spinalonga island became a home for leprosy sufferers in the early 20th century. It is now uninhabited and a venue for tourists who reach it from the mainland by boat.
The mainland of Crete is in the distance.

Highland Dancing performed by four young ladies.

Gillie Callum, or Sword Dance simply also called the Sword, a Scottish solo sword dance from Highland Dancing.

The dance shown here is a variant, the Argyle Broadsword Dance, in which four dancers dance around four cross-shaped swords lying on the floor. Other amazingly similar dances danced over crossed objects can also be found in Ireland and England.
