We're baaack (said in a creepy little gremlins voice)

Well, it's been a long time and life keeps keeping on. Three months, and the site was totally offline for at least one of those due to a server meltdown. The blog and galleries haven't fully recovered yet: some of the photos were not backed up and I would have to take the time to go back and re-link/re-upload/re-reference the pictures that are missing. BUT at least we have the text and all the archives and a great majority of the galleries!
So what has happened over the last three months? We have been to Paris, Lake Maggiore on the border of Italy and Switzerland, up a mountain in Switzerland and back down again (by car), we've been to Milan, Monza and Venice, back to the beautiful Pays-Basque for the ferias and some R&R. I've been to my first and last bullfight and we've spent a weekend sailing the Mediterranean with friends. Until I catch up with everything else, here are the photos from that weekend.
In other news, on July 19th I passed my driving theory test and on September 1st I passed my practical driving test, both on first go. I am now licensed to drive! I am doing ok, though not so comfortable doing between 70 and 90 on little country roads, driving at night on little country roads, or parking... anywhere ;)
Work is coming along and this week will see me turning a new leaf on that front as I sign up with an agency that will accompany me in the creation of my business. I am learning new skills, I enjoy what I do and it's something I can do from anywhere in the world.

So... that's the lowdown for now!
