There is a butterfly house on the island of Mainau, right off the coast from Konstanz, Germany. We were there today and it was very crowded. I think I was the only person there who was wearing open toed shoes. This butterfly found my toes and wouldn’t let go. He (She?) walked around on my foot and would occasionally fling her wings wide open. Only then could you see their vibrant turquoise blue color. It happened so fast that it was impossible to catch. Then she flew away among the crowds and came back to alight on my foot again. I was chosen and kissed by a butterfly. I will continue the story tomorrow as I head on to Luzern, Switzerland on the train.

You must have sweet toes Rosemarie! Looks like a Blue Morpho butterfly, they have the most amazingly vivid blue wings.

It was a most incredible blue, like Caribbean waters.
Aw, I remember visiting Mainau once, 30 years ago. It was spring and all the tulips and other bulbs were in full bloom, it was utterly beautiful.
I will post more photos of Mainau later. This is a travel day.
Beautiful butterfly and your toes aren’t bad either 😉
