2008-09-15 Mum & Dad on the plage at Vias

We met Mum & Dad from the plane at about 10.30am, had a relaxing breakfast (the second for all of us!!) then this was taken on the beach about an hour later.



But, we soon put them to work, well Mum to the lavender and Dad to the peeling of the pickling onions.........
