We can hear a babbling brook, Bria’s paws on the stones,
splashing in the water …
… the gentle surf, the tide rolling in, a few oystercatchers in the distance …
… the traditional music, that is part of our landscape, continues to inspire today’s musicians too:
Wishing you all a blessed Sunday and a peaceful new week,
with love from Xenia and Bria xxx
