Back to nature
... plum in the centre, stuffed roast peppers and roast potatoes. Not having had a home-cooked meal in a while we dug in and all ended the meal completely stuffed.
We started the next day with a huge feast of pancakes with home-made apple fillings and jams. That gave us plenty of fuel for the 1 hour hike through the national park to get to the Bee Museum. It was a beautiful walk and we were the only group on the trails. The Bee Museum was small and basic, but ...
Fishing trip to a river and a lake

In the morning, we took our swimming costumes and wandered across to the island, unaware at that time, of quite how large the festival had been. There were tired looking Rockers everywhere. A sea of pod-like tents covered the hillside and a ...
Serendipity
... This bizarre turn of events meant we spent the evening down by the lakeside, in Virginia's completely empty summer house. They are doing it up, so the only things inside it are a few tools and some unused, newly bought appliances. The water and electricity worked, so we blew up out airbeds in the empty rooms and went for a walk round the lake with a gorgeous sunset.
That is serendipity.
