Antibes


Just a message from hot and sunny Antibes.

We are enjoying our new flat and especially the swimming pool. The weather is great, only problem is mosquitos at night. Poor Mia has an allergic reaction to the bites. We have mosquito patrol before going to bed and are taking all precautions possible, medicated wrist band, spray, plug in repellant.

Last week from Wednesday to Friday we visited the northern part of Italy. We stayed at a beautifully renovated and decorated small hotel in a tiny village in the heart of Piedmonte.

We are also still very excited about the new family member who will be joining us next month. He is now four weeks old......

Purdie


Purdie is the little Scottish Terrier that lives at number 3 of our street.  She likes to visit us when we are on our terrace and we welcome her very much.  She is sweet and gentle and we're going to miss her.........

But.......

We have reserved a little puppy which was born on the 10th of June and can leave his mummy and be with us mid August.  We are soooo excited..........

Fun in the pool


We had a lovely lovely evening round at the Nilssons yesterday.  Joan and Rachel joined us too.  It is still very hot here and I was very tempted to get in the pool with the kids!
