Leaving for Skokholm Island…

Well, our departure date for Wales (UK) has finally sneaked up on us. Stefano and I planned this trip months ago…We’re taking a advantage of a long holiday weekend to which we’ve attached some holiday time… 

I must confess that, with all the last-minute, urgent stuff (read: workworkwork!!!) that I’ve had to do in the past week or so, I ALMOST forgot to write a quick post for the blog. Gee, I must be TIRED!!! 😉 So here I am, at 11 PM at nightzzzz, writing this post…after setting my alarm clock for 5 AM tomorrowzzzzzz…

We’re going to Skokholm Island, which is Skomer Island’s sister island. Skomer hosts the biggest puffin colony in southern Britain AND a third of the world’s population of Manx Shearwaters during their breeding season. And, as you may recall, Stefano and I are hopping mad about puffins!!! 10.07.01-UK-Wales-1567

We’ve been to Skomer a couple of times, but never to Skokholm, which has opened to the public only in the past couple of years and has more “primitive” living accommodations…no showers, etc. No Internet and no phone service, either. No technology…at all! And…no work!!!

I can’t wait! 🙂

Anyway, I wanted to write a quick thingy for the blog, just to explain that I’ll be gone until the end of the month.

In July, things should cool down, though, and I should be able to finish a couple of posts. Mamma mia! Sorry about that, but of course I have to choose paid work over writing for the blog, as much as I love being here with you…

Soooo, please take care, everyone! Ciao! 🙂
