Beauty Bestowed

Woken up by Zion and Allegra coming in to kiss me good-bye...

Were going to spend a night at the coast to recover, but needed to swap cars with a colleague, would have made it too stressful, so decided to come home. At which point, veered off the motorway and headed for nearest beach, stumbled on Vilamoura, the "Monaco of Portugal", with a marina for 1,300 yachts and well, everything that those who "value quality over price" might want in a holiday. 

Still, we found a sunny spot on a sea wall, and ate the sandwiches our kids had left from their packed breakfast.

Gratefuls:
- everyone safely home
- that they came
- beauty bestowed so bountifully...
           
           Caramel cows
           On a hillside
           Lush with lavender.

           Rainbows after rain
           Ringing the Roma encampment.

           Solitary blossom
           In a blue gin bottle
           Gift from my gone grandson.
