Finally getting around to posting some photos from May in England
… white cliffs of dover
enjoyed many cups of tea and scones
this little shop in Stowe was a gem
moving back and forth between camera & iPad :-D
flowers everywhere
Every time I look through the photos... and there are hundreds of them ... I am taken back to my beloved England
a place on Earth that is not only my place of birth but part of my heart & soul …
Only a few days had rain … but it's English rain … bliss
of course … as soon as I saw Art Supplies, I had to walk in …
And anything to do with animals and animal welfare gets my attention { and change}
Cotswolds
Leeds Castle gardens
Dreamy Wisteria everywhere …
Leeds Castle
Taking it all in
Devils Dyke
"We talk always about our grief at leaving the land,
when we leave a place we have loved.
The grief of the emigrant,
the yearning for the land we once inhabited.
But what if, when we leave it, the land grieves for us?"

… hope you enjoy these little snippets of England …

Nothing like going home again. I loved seeing your tour pictures. You can share as many as you want to. I will appreciate them all. I was there some 30+ years ago. Before I took lots of photos. Wish I had been in picture mode at that time. I hope to get back there some time.
Did you purchase anything in the art supply store? I would have been tempted to just to have something from England. I like things that I use. :) Cheers.
hi Lisa ~ so happy you are enjoying the photos … there is just so much history and beauty in every corner to be found. I have pictures on the camera and iPad so sorting through them all (still) putting names/dates with them all with plans to put together a travel album. I know what you mean about being tempted to buy something from all the shops … I would have loved to have purchased more but suitcase size limitations prevented getting anything too big :-) so it was just a few pens.
So beautiful, I have never been but I feel like I would feel perfectly at home there. Thank you for sharing with us.
hi Meredith ~ thank you so much … even though I emigrated as a young child moving to Canada, the moment I stepped off the plane it felt like home. I am so happy you enjoyed the photos … I hope to share more soon. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend (heat wave here)!
Lovely memories, Deb :-)
hi Chris ~ thank you for adding to the "lovely memories" and planning so many wonderful spots to visit xo
