I announced three weeks ago that I would send only a photo on Wednesdays. I did so the first and second week, but last week I wrote on Wednesday about the speech of UN Secretary-General Guterres.
This Wednesday, I don’t know which photo to choose, so I will just post a few. No story, just a few pictures of my village on the island from where I have been writing to you for some time now.
Have a great Wednesday, wherever you are on the planet.

Notes:
I managed to write this one without any notes…
Wonderful pictures of your island. Dropping horse chestnuts means autumn is really there. Chestnuts always brings to mind Christmas is approaching and and the year will end soon. Enjoy that lovely place in the autumn weather. Thanks for those photos and the sketch note, always enjoyable.
About the horse chestnuts - conkers, we called them in the schoolyard - I’ve heard that strewing them around your house discourages spiders. I pass on the wisdom for what it’s worth -
