Our friend Michel came to stay the weekend with us from Norway. As I've said before, each one of us has our own connection with this young French bachelor (nothing dodgey though!), but Rhiannon has a particularly soft spot for him. He arrived Saturday morning and we immediately went for a long walk in the forest.
There are beautiful leaves around just now, and Rhiannon wanted to make a bouquet for the wedding she was planning to have later. We eventually extracted from her that she was planning to marry Michel. Big surprise there!
Rhiannon insisted on taking this photo of us but made me hold her fishing pole (which she had intended to somehow rig to hold the camera but couldn't quite figure out how to implement).
Our picnic site in the forest. We were actually on sort of a peninsula between two lovely ponds.
One of the ponds with a flash of sunlight illuminating the autumn colors in the trees.
Tryfan riding on Michel's head as we went for another walk to another part of the forest on Sunday morning!
Tryfan and I showed Rhodri, Michel and Rhiannon where we have been spending all our Forest School sessions. This is one of the trees that is especially good for climbing (though not normally as high as Rhiannon is here)...
We went to a pub nearby (not the same one we went with Rob and Dhara) and had a lovely Sunday lunch before the kids had to go to a birthday party. Eventually, though, we all had to say goodbye to our friend as he headed back to Norge.
Thanks for coming to visit us, Michel :-)
