More Summer holiday visits

I had a very busy week last week. I drove North to Leeds with my eldest granddaughter to look after my youngest 2 grandchildren for a few days. Then drove home via Stratford-upon-Avon on the Thursday. On the Friday I travelled by rail to Brighton.

 Victorian shopping arcades in Leeds.

The River Avon. I stopped here on my way back from Leeds to show my granddaughter the home of Shakespeare in Stratford upon Avon. 

Arriving at Brighton Rail Station to meet up with some friends.

Brighton pier 

I wondered why these ladies were all sitting here.

They were getting ready for a sing song and walk along the prom.

School holidays

 This is the time of the year when I am needed to do a lot of childcare. My daughter and her two children and myself spent last week in Norfolk.

The weather was perfect and there was lots to do.

From seal watching

to rock pooling.

Or just playing in the sand.

We were fortunate to have temperatures in the mid 20s whilst London melted in temperatures in the mid 30s.
