Back to Brittany

Early morning walks are the perfect way to start the day

Our home for the next three months, hidden behind the trees

We've moved Bokkie out of the hangar so she's getting some fresh air

After a fantastic but busy trip to South Africa we managed to scoot across continents into France just as travel opened up.  

We're back in familiar surroundings in our winter sit for the next three months. Our tans are fading away fairly quickly, or maybe they're being worn off by the many layers of clothing we're wearing.  We miss the heat that we had in SA but are loving the slow pace of life in rural France, this really has become a home-from-home for us.

Three of our favourite things in the world - The fireplace, Jess...

and Jasper, relaxed as ever.

We've spent the last week in the garden with the owners so it's been great to get their input and ideas for the property.  They handed over the two cats this morning and headed off to cross the channel - now we will look after things here until April.

Although less diverse than in Kruger, the bird life here is absolutely fantastic!

The Robins are always around in a frosty garden.

Greater Spotted Woodpecker


Great Tit (L) and Blue Tit (R)

Nuthatch


We will blog as and when we do some interesting stuff: until then assume we're hibernating and winter gardening!
