Not very far away from our flat, there is a very large geriatric hospital, so yesterday we had a walk right up to there. Before the main entrance door, you can find a small covered courtyard with benches where patients and the hospital staff can sit and have a little chat.
We met there a very old one-legged lady, about eighty years old, sitting in a wheelchair, accompanied with a young woman. Once they saw Dharma walking clumsily on the lead, they giggled and smiled. Dharma was very quiet and sweet, the young woman took her on her lap, and Dharma kissed her on the nose, then when on the floor again, she sniffed at the wheel chair and at the old woman foot, never being abrupt.
Then arrived a young nurse who jumped on Dharma, took her in her arms, kissed her, hugged her calling her "amore, amore!", quite a funny scene, reminding me Tiny Toons' Elmyra... Oo
After a few minutes, a bunch of people had gathered around us, screaming and laughing enthusiastically :-D
If you don't know Elmyra, here she is:
We remained there about half an hour and then went back home, I did not dare taking any picture, not to bother people and not to be intrusive, it was a very nice and sweet moment and the very old lady laughed all the time Dharma was around.
Today we went to a tiny parc and took several pictures:
