We had a quiet kind of adventure, staying with friends in an old and rustic bach a few hours' away. It was so nice to escape town just before Christmas. There was a storm and it rained almost the entire time we were there. So that was a shame but it didn't really matter, because the children played in their raincoats anyway, digging holes and making dams and driftwood huts. And Jenny and I had the perfect excuse to do a bit of cross-stitch and look out of the window at the sea. That's a pretty good holiday in my book.

in this period of the year I like reading your blog because it reminds me that in many parts of the world Christmas is not snowy an cold like in Italy.
I love the third phot: what kind of trees are?LikeLike

Gorgeous. And good for you for “rolling” with the thunderclouds. Fun can be had at any time, given the right clothes, activities, and company.

Sounds like a perfectly lovely getaway. A little rain never stops the kids from playing. And quiet time for crafting with a friend is always a good thing. happy day to you, Tammy

I have a pair of your baby shoes winging their way to me to give to my new niece, born last week in Ireland. I’m so excited to give them to her.LikeLike

I spent the first half of the post thinking ‘going away BEFORE Christmas? But there’s so much to do!’ and then I realized – thats why a holiday at this time would be so nice, as you said, to escape the craziness.

I sometimes wonder that nature has such beautiful sites to show us and for us to find. I liked all the captures shown here, they are amazing. Every one should take this type of trips once in a while.
