Simple holiday pleasures - sitting at the back door in the sunshine for my first cup of tea of the day. Yes, I’m still in my pyjamas.

Portnahaven sunsets. First pic shows where the sun is setting in December around 4pm, then swipe for early September around 8pm then longest day (I think!) and another June one around 10pm.

Aye, the nights are drawing in! Tonight’s sunset about 8pm - swipe to see it setting off the other end of the island at 10pm back in June.

Saligo beach this summer.
I have about a million pictures of Saligo on my phone - It is amazingly beautiful! We got lucky with a sunny afternoon and tide out on the last day of our stay, so great fun wading through these rock pools.

Paddleboarders (including a dog!) down below The Bay - I was trying to get an artistic shot with their reflection in the hall mirror - couldn't quite get the real shot and the reflection at the same time!
