We extended our country respite by a couple of days. Now I understand the real meaning of RE - TREAT!!  Treat after treat. Out the back of the pavillion is a beautiful rainforest fairy garden and Sienna can scramble to the top in seconds!! So many lovely walks across dell and dale, around farmlands and up and down picture perfect laneways.

One morning we woke up to a heavy mist. It was so magical I felt like I was in a movie and went searching for Heathcliff..

Every morning after a delicious feast of bread and jam (I know I never eat that stuff) we would drive out in the gangster tank to take Sienna to riding school, meandering back through the townships hunting and gathering delicacies from specialists, take walks through hobbit villages, tell wild stories and laugh and laugh. OMG!

Mladin is renovating the pavillion. It is so gorgeous set back up the hill with a big open fireplace. We hung the 'Water for Object' triptych in their bedroom. I am stoked big time and it looks perfect.

And of course every afternoon we would end the days watching the everlasting sunsets over glasses of French wine and the procured delicacies.....
