Holiday Round Up

I've been home for just over a week. I had good flights, even the 14 hour one passed very well - I slept for a few hours, watched 3 films, read my book, did some puzzles, and of course eating. 

oOo

The last of my holiday photos. We love markets, and the West End market is a big one. Lots of food stalls and every other kind of stall you could imagine.


Books


Cheese

Just about everything you need for your pet dog or cat


ties and dicky bows                           hats


mushrooms

plants


salami


sunglasses, or as they call them in Oz, and I now call them - sunnies



fruit & veg

delicious breads and pastries


and even a psychic


I'm missing my daughter but we all talk and post on Whatsapp, and it's nice spending time with my eldest daughter.

    1. It hasn't been too bad since I returned, mild days but chilly once the sun has gone.

  9. I like strolling around a local market. The Enoki mushroom look as twice large as ours. The trip with your daughter must have been so special. I enjoyed travelling around Germany with my daughter, just two of us, long time ago.

    1. That's what I thought Michelle, I know there are lots of varieties but some of those were new to me!
