Today it´s day six of my two week break in Spain and I´m in Toledo. I deliberately booked myself into a decent hotel that offered business centre facilities as I´ve a bit of catching up to do on the work of the charity. But the receptionist has just told me that in respect of the business centre "today is occupated". So I am confined to use of the internet which is better than nothing.
For the first part of the holiday I was joined by my friend Kathleen "Kik" Kimball who I´d the pleasure to meet on my mosaic course/holiday in Florence last year. Kik is from New Hampshire and a very talented artist who specialises in fused glass techniques:

On this link Kik is the artist on the left of shot; she doesn´t like having her picture taken (as I´ve discovered over the past few days!). Kik also has more than a passing interest in Eastern art and is a Feng Shui Mater:

As you might guess from all of this Kik is an inspirational individual and has been tremendous company as we explored Cordoba and Granada together. A great deal of her time during the holiday has been given over to helping me with thoughts and designs for my "Himalayan Mosaics" project. At this critical juncture that has been time very well spent and I´ll be forever grateful for that.
