Round where we are - and I cannot mention the exact spot - are beautiful orchards & vinyards and we have plenty of oranges and appricots and now & then we can get a little red wine of the country for ourstomachs sake - as did Timothy.   The other day I rode a horse to the Mediterranean and had a delightful bathe in the sea - my first decent wash for 6 weeks. Rounnd Musill**ah - or the Camels Hump as it is called such on map - it was not only the heat that worried us.   The flies were in millions but at night the mosquitoes make  us forget at least the flies.
