Home again

Well, I'm back in the real world and feeling the pull of the blog, but I'm still processing the trip to the UK. Slowly digesting it, trying to decide exactly what to regurgitate to you. (Ew. Sounds icky, right?) There is so much to tell and I don't want to simply post a long, boring, overly detailed travelogue. I'm perfectly capable of doing that, let me tell you. I'm sure you don't doubt it.






All I can say for sure at this moment is that what I've heard is true--traveling beyond your own country changes you. I've been to Canada and Mexico, but Mexico was years ago, and Canada (Toronto) felt so close to home it wasn't the same.

Meantime, these are a couple of pictures just to hold you, and I hope you'll stick around and be patient with me until I figure it all out.

The first two are the back window view from the first B&B we stayed in at Llandudno, Wales. The picture below is the view from the front window, a crescent shaped beach on the Irish Sea. Yes, we had two views. It was the most amazing B&B ever.
More soon!

(If you look closely, you can see a reflection of my camera off the window glass. The window opened, but a cold, brisker than brisk winter wind blew right into the room with it open, so I took refuge behind the glass!)

Thanks, Donna. It was a blast.

Laura, I was so close to your hometown, I could probably throw a rock from the train and hit it a few times! I bet you'll recognize many of the locations in photos I'll post later. I loved the area around York and my day trip to Haworth.
