Farewells

I felt really sad to leave family and leave Sutton. Danny's worked magic fitting everything into the car, plus gifts for the French family. 
We drove to visit Sandy and break the journey to Folkestone. Great to see him and his new house. Then a slow traffic-filled journey to Folkestone to stay with James and Rich. So great to see them. They'd booked us all in to the Venetian Fête in Hythe - floats on the river, fireworks and fairground rides. Fun!

Today I'm grateful for;
1) Mom and Dad's kindness and generosity in giving us a base these past few weeks.
2) Arriving safely despite creaking from the car.
3) A really fun evening out.
