A whirlwind tour of Devon. . . . . . . .




Wow, what a busy few days we've enjoyed already! The time is flying by much 
too quickly and I have little time to attend to my blog. . . . . . sorry.  I will be back here 
to share my lovely hometown soon. Places such as my 'local', the pub named the 
Devon Dumpling in the village where I grew up, the cottages, the very same railing 
where I did somersaults as a child. All this and more I'm sharing with Jasmin who 
is enjoying this whirlwind tour as we cram in as much as possible. The weather is 
being so kind to us - and all is going well following a few glitches at the start!  
More later.

    Looking forward to seeing more pictures of your visit to Devon. I've just got back home to France after a similar whirlwind visit to see friends in Dartmouth where we lived for 17yrs.

    Well, I have some double Devon clotted cream in the fridge waiting for the perfect scone. Does that count?

    Oh, so beautiful, Mary! I have a soft spot in my heart for England, as dear friends of mine live there (Bristol) and I haven't seen them in 9 years when they came here. I was there visiting them 15 years ago and fell in love with your home country. How I long to go back again! Hopefully, someday soon. Your granddaughter is so pretty. :-)
