Default Avast, ye swabbies!

Great! wishing you an uneventful trip and a wonderful time in your little
corner of paradise - looking forward to new pics!
I'm up at my parents but still working so Thea & Bono have not been to the
lake yet, just enjoying their veranda here. We, unlike other parts of the
country and the rest of Burope, have not had any of the pouring rain so cats
are also going for walkies around the house. Lovely Midsummer time, lush,
green and nights with enough light to play boule outside around midnight
without any artificial lighting - it's summer for sure.
had a good time!

Forsooth! The time is nigh! The pirate kitties are preparing to go to
their treasure island soon.

I'm reminded of when I was a kid and my cousins and I used to play pirates
out on the island. We explored the 'deep, dark jungle' and we went on
treasure hunts and we camped out. We even made a Jolly Roger. Ah, we were
wild little things in the summers out on the island. When we got hot we
just stripped and jumped into the sea.

Anyway, my holiday starts on Friday and we'll hopefully be able to leave
on Monday, weather permitting. It is rainy and windy today, but it may
change by next week. I'm hoping to hitch a ride with my brother so I won't
have to listen to Caliban cry all through a 3-4-hour bus trip. It's much
faster by car, and not a whole busload of people to annoy. We went by bus
last year, and Caliban didn't stop for one minute of that ride.

Last year, Miranda remembered the place immediately. We'll see if Caliban
does this year, or if he hides under the pillows on my bed for the first
hour, like he did last year. I'm so looking forward to watching my cats
play on the island again. My niece is there with Kasper and Emil, so there
may be some interesting confrontations.
