The birds arrived for breakfast. Lots of blue tits but they are too quick and the red squirrel was too quick as well!

These are obviously the birds who are used to being fed from the lodge.

We heard from Margaretha – it is snowing in Cyprus!  February is a horrible month over there, definitely their winter.

We went to the Donkey Sanctuary in the morning, so that we could see the donkey Hannah that we sponsored for Mal’s sister. Of course Ellie loved seeing the donkeys.

It was very cold there and so we drove into Shanklin to warm ourselves up with some lunch at The Steamer Inn. I had their chowder which was delicious and they are very dog friendly in there.

We then had a walk along Shanklin beach.
