In the meantime

Spring pretty much arrived while we were away with lighter evenings and some long-awaited colour in the garden.

These tulips are on the deck outside our kitchen window providing a welcome splash of colour when you look out.

It always seems like you plant loads in the cold days of bulb-planting but never seems enough when the flowering season starts!

Sunshine in Savannah

Savannah was our last stop before returning to Atlanta to fly home- just in time before the volcanic ash cloud temporarily closed the skies.

Savannah is criss-crossed with leafy squares like this one each one surrounded by beautiful old houses making for a delightful walk around the city.

The magic lives on

The southernmost point of our trip was Orlando which of course meant a trip to The Magic Kingdom first visited many years ago when our (now grown up) children were small.

Still magic!

We arrived in time for lunch and managed to fit in thirteen rides, two parades, a firework display & dinner with this as our view :)

Ochlockonee

Ochlockonee

Ochlockonee River Nature Trail stunning walk through the woods and along the river bank - literally no one else was walking this beautiful trail - so quiet that when we got back to our lonely car in the carpark the deer grazing there simply looked up unconcerned and then continued grazing.

View from my window

Perfect Pensacola

Beaches don't come much better than this! Pensacola was the first stop on our recent trip round the North of Florida and what a treat after the seemingly endless cold days of this winter to wake up and have this beach right outside your window. BLISS!

Perfect for evening walks, shell collecting and mornings lazing in the sun.
