As a family we absolutely love visiting Cornwall, so when my lovely friend Pippa told me she was arranging a Mama's retreat I was very interested. It's my birthday soon and Hubbie asked if I'd like to go as an early birthday gift. He booked annual leave to do the school and nursery runs and assured me it would all be fine if I went. So I packed the car on Tuesday and tuned into Radio 4 for the 5 hour drive to visit my lovely friend Penny the night before the retreat started.
I've spent three days child free and enjoyed the company of friends old and new. I've been nourished in so many ways: physically with a facial, a massage and reflexology, emotionally by taking time for myself and actually with wonderful food. I'm feeling so blissed out I wanted to share some photos to give you an idea of what the experience was like.
We ate delicious vegetarian food:

| Pea and Mint Fritatta |

| Courgette and lime cake |
We created things from nature:

| Lovely inspirational messages |
 |
| My interpretation of the cove |
We walked and admired the beautiful Prussia Cove:

| Off for a meditative walk |
 |
| It's a stunning place |
 |
| A bit steep |
We enjoyed a lovely, relaxing yoga practice:

| A beautiful room for yoga |

| Pink flamingo nails |
I've come home energised and refreshed and am looking forward to seeing my beloved boys in the morning. I can't believe I was even worried about going !
I hope the bliss lasts.
