Tempus Fugit

Time flies when you are having fun! Since I last posted we spent the summer holidays visiting my parents in Dorset.  Then we drove to Paris to visit Tony's family, they took us on a day trip to Rouen and saw the Grand Horlorge. in paris we visited the Trocadero and its museum opposite the Eiffle Tower with our cousins.
At the end of our five day stay we brought Auntie back to England to stay with us for two weeks. We visited Brighton - The Royal Pavilion and the shops, also London to see the sights and visit Harrods, many places and villages across Sussex too.
After we had safely delivered Auntie back to the Eurostar train to return home to Paris, we flew off across to Italy. We spent a week in Florence, Italy which was wonderful. The daily temperature was between 33-36 degrees, the sun was glorious after all the weeks of rain soaked summer back home.  We retreated inside each day around lunchtime/early afternoon to cool off and rest before returning to the streets in the late afternoon. We visited all the sights, ate delicious food, we browsed the many shops, took far too many photos but we had a wonderful time.  Back soon Jane x

You were in Paris? I am so jealous!!! I am at mom and dads this weekend. It's a struggle. My mom has Alzheimer's. She was diagnosed two years ago and has regressed substantially. My poor dad has to deal with it all as my sister and I live far away.

Have a great weekend and thanks for popping by my blog.
