Now most of the boxes are unpacked, we have turned our attention to the garden for some of the time. It won’t be long until it is too hot to do any work out there. We have the beginnings of a boules court/pitch, and the terrace outside the Chicken Palace is settling in, but it will be a while before we can finish either. In the meantime, there are lots of plants that have been in pots on the roof terrace for years, finally getting their roots into terra firma, and some new plants to brighten things up.
We have some exciting news on the irrigation water front, and should be able to tell you more soon, but for now, here are a few photos taken today.
