We were both pretty tired from yesterday’s dancing and the previous day’s hike, so we took time not to rush things too much this morning. Cottage Pancakes gave a good start to what became a productive and social day.

Sinead, Sam and Oscar were visiting from Ireland and were due to meet up with us yesterday, but due to a late ferry and various other obstacles, we had to reluctantly admit that things weren’t going to work out this time. However, an afternoon Plan B got us down to near where they were staying, and the weather was kind enough to give us some reasonable kite-flying conditions! They are the kind of friends that we don’t see often enough, but when we do, it feels like we were with them only last week. We had a great few hours on the beach, catching up with each other’s news and generally chasing around.

It was just about dry enough, but a really heavy downpour sent us (quite happily), into the cafe for a drink before we said our goodbyes.

Made it back to The Cottage in time to get the fire lit and dinner cooked, before Matt arrived! A good day of fun and chat before we head off on our next adventure….
