Mini trip to UK
November 18, 2011
We were very sad to travel to the UK last week to say farewell to a lovely lady in a beautiful ceremony.
The trip did give us the chance to meet up with many of our families, particularly Jon’s family. It’s a sad fact of life that we only see many members of our families these days at those momentous occasions of marriage and death but we are always very pleased to see them and catch up on news of our offspring and, nowadays, their offspring too.
Our lovely catsitters are having problems of their own at the moment, so we had to keep our trip as short as possible, but we did have time to take in some sea air last Sunday morning at Wimereux. We certainly didn’t expect such a beautiful and mild morning in mid-November. The beach was busy with families; children building sandcastles, whole families on rollerblades, grownups digging in the sand in search of a free lunch of mussels.
Fortunately I was able to take a few photos without the crowds in:
