Out the back window
There are few advantages to be had from living so far from our parents. However, one advantage is the appreciation of how much sheer joy our daughter brings to my mum and N which is matched only by her squeals of delight at seeing them again. Likewise, for her Granddad and Babushka and Grandma & Grandpa. I'm not sure how it would be if we lived in the same place. Would we recognize how sweet each others company is?
We're having a glorious time. Listening to tales spun over a few (?) stiff whiskeys; indulging in hearty breakfasts and pies with homegrown or foraged blackberries and apples; foraging for berries; fishing (with no success) and getting to take long naps. Oh, if it didn't have to end.
Back to Florence tomorrow, hope RyanAir doesn't screw us over like they did on the way here!
N caught a fish yesterday with the rest of the maggots. It was a roach and went back into the water. So we went and had fish in beer batter and something to drink. We miss you.
