A town we're very familiar with having visited it on many occasions over the years. I have a very dear friend who lives here family really, we've known one another for years, brought up our children together and seen each other through many turbulent and fun times. We are indeed like sisters or Thelma and Louise as our daughters refer to us.

Our visit this time is brief, just two weeks pet/house sitting for some friends who've taken a "bucket list" trip to the States. Butte and Moss are two collies with lovely characters both rescued some years ago by their owners, they are extremely well traveled. Fay and Ray have a lovely house in the hills an hour outside of Malaga, Spain and take the doggies with them at least three times a year, open a car trunk and they're in faster than you can say SIT!
