We landed at Heathrow two days before the Icelandic volcano stopped all air traffic. Can't win 'em all!
Flowers were all around us on our walks. The countryside of England must have looked like this not so long ago, before agriculture became monoculture and "weeds" were banned...
On one walk we were kindly invited to look round a greenhouse where orchids were being grown for sale.
This is Angela checking out the fragrance...
They weren't the only orchids on the island though. This is a monkey orchid. I haven't identified the insect yet.
