Very quiet and peaceful. Everything we could need was provided. My apologies for not emptying the fridge; I forgot. I only realised my error when I arrived home and found I had no milk, eggs or cheese. I had intended taking the contents of the fridge home. I'm sorry about that. Senior moments are occurring increasingly more often.
