After just over four hours sleep, I was back up and out into the brightness of The Cottage gardens around 9am. Ideally, I’d have stayed slumbering for the remainder of the morning, but there was much to be done, and little in the way of available time. Some toast and coffee got things started along with some invigorating sunshine on my face.
By mid morning there were two lots of washing hanging out to dry and I was showered, shaved and feeling a bit more human. Having been up in the mountains of Mallorca, and fully focused on expedition life, I opened my laptop to find I had 176 emails to start working through, on top of the planned activity of writing post expedition reports and accounts. Additional coffee was required later in the afternoon…
I called it a day on the laptop around 6pm and after a delicious meal, set to work packing various bags for the next few weeks of differing adventures.
To wind down, clear my head and mentally check through that I’d done what needed to be done, I took a short walk at dust to the view point.
A deep sleep of a much more satisfactory length had me set up and re-charged for getting back on the road. Next stop, find Clare and get ourselves to an 80th Birthday Party….
