Good morning fellow Mastos and hello to a very sunny Sunday. We've heard from the house sitters that there is still (some) wine left! 😉 So good news from home. Wesley is also happy with Harry & Linda, so good news all around.

Hopefully your Sunday will be full of good stuff too. Have fun, have laughs, have a little sing to yourself as if nobody is listening. Take care.

Today's photo is a little Hoopoe. There were two by the sunbeds last night after everyone had gone. We were just passing by.

A Hoopoe bird by a rock in late evening sunshine. The bird is a light tan colour with black and white striped wings. It's beak is quite long and it has a large crest, for the bird's size, which is black and tan in colour.

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Friday. It's still 31C in Rovinj so we are taking shelter in a small cafe on the waterfront and enjoying a bit of a breeze. And a couple of non alcoholic drinks, for health purposes!

Have a great day today, whatever you are doing. Have fun, have laughs, have steak pie and chips. Take care.

Today's photo is a pair of yachts snuggled down together under a brilliant red sunset, last night.

A pair of sailing yachts moored offshore. The sea is calm and the two yachts are almost silhouetted against the sky which is a brilliant orange red colour as the sun sets.
