Following a hint from my friends, Sophie and I went for a walk and found this enormous fig tree. There were figs all over the ground, and branches laden with fruit, so it seemed to be abandoned. We ate as much as we could and filled a bag in a matter of minutes.
The next day, Sophie chopped up a pot full and I put it on the stove with a bit of water to simmer for about 30 minutes.
I drained the extra water and saved it for a fig flavoured drink, then simmered the fruit a little longer adding some freshly squeezed orange juice and a spoon of honey.
Ready for tomorrow's breakfast.
We were visited by a couple of little birds and later on Sophie tried her hand and fishing.
