Once more we rise to a good breakfast and then off for the day enjoying the flora and forna, recording all we see in watercolours. Returning again around 5.00 to prepare for yet another delightful evening meal before watching a watercolour video in the lounge…and then to bed.

Friday
Rising sadly for the final breakfast prior to meeting in the lounge to review and discuss ones work and then it's sad farewells at lunchtime and the journey home.
