Intrepid Adventures (2)

Looking over the photos of our trip, I see that at least half of our time was spent eating and drinking in various local eateries... And the other 50% was devoted to long, lazy afternoons and evenings with close friends and family. The two activities are not mutually exclusive, of course.

BB samples local delicacies in a café...

And in a pub...

And, um, in another café...
(did anyone notice the initials on the mug I'm holding? Turns out we unwittingly found THE café named after my little boy!).

BB soon deduced that the way to an English girl's heart appears to be through... music!
Here he is wooing various charming ladies with his musical exploits...



And speaking of charming suitors, here are a selection

The exquisite Nina V. and her mum Caro, one of my best friends for the past 24 years...


The members of the beautiful hair brigade: Lani, Kiki and their mum Gee (mum or older sister?!).

And in the interests of fairness, here are the long-suffering dads/husbands, IOD and Neil A.

Guess which one was at the front of the queue when the hair was being handed out? And who got pushed to the back?
(and no, I did not manage to get all four heads into the picture, unfortunately.)

And lastly, a couple of random shots to prove that we managed to do a little outdoor activity, too.

The start of a new vocation? Or a sign that it's time to embark on the long journey home...?
