Struggles

Glad we arrived back yesterday because woke this morning to a colder, rainy day, after a sleep much interrupted by coughing. SO irritating.

This afternoon, it stopped enough for us to walk along the irrigation canal at the back of our house - it's changed so much in this last month. Blossom has been replaced by miniature fruits, ripe red strawberries peeking out from the beds, and the storks are sitting on eggs. So much beauty, but decided to have these fighting drakes for my blip. They were still at it when we left, so not sure which one got the female waiting calmly further down the canal.

Still glad to be here, but realising again that doesn't mean there won't be struggles...
