Our first, very busy day in Ballinatona…feeding animals, walking dogs, meeting neighbors, and getting the lay of the land.

TO COSLADA, AN INTRODUCTION FOR OUR HOUSE/PET SIT
Our jaunt to visit the apartment near Coslada, a suburb of Madrid where we will live with cats for three weeks, was unsettling!
COWS IN THE BACKYARD, NEAR CRAWLEY, UK
We get a little visit from a small herd of cows on Easter Day, near Crawley, UK, much to our chagrin. What to do?!
A RUNAWAY DOGGIE AND SEVENOAKS, UK
Off to Sevenoaks to visit our friends for an Easter dinner, and mentally preparing to leave Sussex after three weeks.
OOPS! CRAZY IN CRAWLEY
We were all ready to leave the next day when surprised by new information (or at least new to us). We started calling our stay Crazy in Crawley.
ADIEU, CRAWLEY: HELLO, LONDON
Finally we leave Ifield and our dreary house/pet sit and head back to London, where we stay near Brixton.
OUR NEW HOUSE/DOG SIT: DUFFY AND HER FAMILY IN EDINBURGH
We spend a long day in our new home with the family we will be pet and house sitting for, including a walk through Braidburn Valley Park and Blackford Hills.
