  • Paulette x replied

    Ah thank you very much. I certainly did. Had lots of quality time with my camera, took well over 2000 shots! So many to go through now which is lovely. The experience of seeing the Pyrenees for the first time was wonderful. So many gorgeous experiences of nature in my favourite environment (mountains) if not my favourite location (Scotland).
