Friday - Week VII

I was so excited when I woke up to see the sun shinning once again. I almost couldn't get out of bed fast enough. I had another lovely walk into town where I first stopped off at the budding cafe to pick up my hat and camera having forgotten them both last night after the children's party.

I then proceeded toward the library to spend the afternoon getting prepared for next weeks lessons and just getting some writing time in.

On my way, I was excited, yet shocked to see the same emergency workers from a month ago doing practice rescues in the raging river. I am clearly not the only person to find this interesting because there was a group gathered along the bridge and river bank watching and taking pictures. I just can't imagine how cold it was in that water this morning but I am sure it is better to be prepared than to risk not being able to perform a successful real water rescue when it is needed.

I met my friend Maura, from the class, at a yoga studio near the Budding Cafe for a two hour Kundalini yoga class. The class involved a lot of breathing exercises with gentle movements really working the core area so my abs and thighs were aching by the end.

We stopped off at the Budding Cafe where a celebration of the shops 25th Anniversary was winding down. Maura and I got to try the incredible mince pies that Ellen's staff has been making for days and had a little time to chat before she had to run off home to relieve her babysitter.

The weather did take an unusual turn this evening with a quick dusting of snow. It was all gone by the time we left yoga class but the temperature was a few degrees lower by that point. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
