Hi, my blog is a record of our year(ish) long tour of Europe, an idea sprung on me by my husband last year. A word of warning to anyone reading this who doesn't know me, I have an inability to use one word when a hundred will do, in fact this blog is the antithesis of Twitter! It also includes EXTENSIVE use of the words beautiful, pretty, nice, gorgeous, tasty, lovely and wonderful amongst others! I'll attempt to use some different words occasionally to ring the changes.

This little dog was unaware he was being stalked by a white cat.
The cat with the ‘wind under its tail’!
View into the castle area.
Looking back over the church.
Cistern.
Battlements.
Tower where we could hear beautiful singing.
View over the surrounding countryside.
You’re going to get stuck in one of these one of these days!
Darren had to help me across this little link into the tower, it was scary.
THIS was where the lady had been singing.
Smoke, eeek!
I wasn’t brave enough to follow Darren up on that wall.
Looking down from the wall.
Looking over towards the castle.
Sitting with a drink in hand, chilling out in the shade of a huge tree.
Hey you, you’ve been following us all over Europe!
Surely there must be better places to rest.
I wonder how long he’s going to perch up there?
Apparently this means please do not step on the grass, we’d been trying to guess.
