sooo... mum just called...


dad's getting home!!! :D

cellulitis, off IV and on to tablets:)
Cellulitis is horrible :(

A good friend of mine went down with it early this year and still isn't fully fit. She's an outdoor activity, hiking and mountaineering type the same age as me. It's a nasty, nasty thing.

I hope your Dad recovers quickly John

Good evening all. I have caught up by skimming through around 30 pages of posts

We have been up into Haute Languedoc today - the mountain roads were over 1000m/3300'

Views were disappointing this morning due to low cloud, but it was so peaceful. No traffic noise at all

In the afternoon we descended a little and the sun came out. We were rewarded by loads of birds of prey and butterflies. We saw a Holden Eagle really close - they're huge. There were also Buzzards, Honey Buzzards, Kestrels and Short-Toed (aka Snake) Eagles :)

Son took this of a Hummingbird Hawk Moth when we were having our picnic lunch

I took this of a pretty big green lizard in the Ladies toilets

This lake is for hydro-electricity generation

Hello Ed,

it makes me sad that your mother is sick. I wish her the very best and send you electronic hugs.
Thanks
She was recovering from a stroke at a rehabilitation facility and was doing very well.
But now it looks like all or most of her progress is gone.

Spent some time camping in the Languedoc area.
Beautiful.:<3::)
And I remember catching lizards both big and small there, though they're fast!
But I never saw a Hummingbird Hawk Moth!
WOW! :D
Lovely photos, as usual.
