We are just back from spending two glorious weeks in dear old Blighty. It was a bit of a spur of the moment decision to head back. Actually it came down to a coin flip between Liverpool and Florida. We chose dog turds and scallies over sandy beaches and pelicans. Ooops!
Shaz and I made it to the Lakes for a couple of days. We lived it up and stayed in the Wasdale Head Inn. The spectacular scenery made a welcome change from the forests of Pennsylvania and West Virginia (but we are about 3 weeks away from warmer weather here and I can't wait to get the tent out!!!).
It was interesting to be back in the UK and reflect on the past 12 months spent overseas.
Thanks to Lewis and Mel for a great overnight in Manchester. Tequila slammers at 5 am gave me just the boost I needed for packing and heading to the airport! Ed, Ken and Mike.....keep our seats for us in the Gardener's!
On the way back we stayed in Niagara on the Lake in the Oban Inn and took the kids to see Niagara Falls.
