We had our first lie-in for quite a while this morning. The weeks leading up to going, packing the house in to self-storage, cleaning the house up for handing back to the landlord, packing the suitcases properly, the operation, the trip to casualty, the trip over here, a week to get everything sorted for somewhere to live for the next 6 months……………it’s no wonder we were tired – Louise far more than me!!

However, waking up to have breakfast and a cup of tea out on the deck in the sunshine gazing out over the mountains………….priceless!
