Winter??


This morning Sophie and I drove to Perpignan to buy her some clothes for her birthday (Friday!) and to pick up supplies for a birthday party this weekend. On the way back we went to the wood yard and (despite the limitations of my French) managed to negotiate the purchase of a pile of oak logs for the wood burner. 
It was a glorious day today. We ate lunch outside…

played boules and badminton…

 
and tried dipping our feet in the pool…

although Charlie thought the water was a bit cold!
 I got a closer look at the delicate mimosa blooms...


and even found some olives still on the trees.
