We didn’t get round to posting this on our return from Nice as life has been rather busy. We arrived home safely from Nice and spent Thursday night in Leominster. Friday saw all three of us (including Whiskey) saying goodbye to Jo’s mum and heading home to Ashton after three and a half months away. Then it was straight into preparations for Carol Services, Christingles, Christmas services which left little time for us to stop and catch our breath. Now that it’s New Year’s Eve we’ve finally had chance to finish off this blog! With our best wishes for 2014, here is the last blog from our sabbatical…….. We hope that you’ve enjoyed following our journeys over the last few months – we feel really privileged to have been able to do what we’ve done and are so grateful to those who have made it possible.
Wednesday was a day of shopping for various things we wanted to take home, sitting in the Old Town at one of our regular cafés , having lunch on the terrasse of our apartment, relaxing in the sun with books, wandering down to the promenade to watch the sunset and then returning home though the new park and watching the fountains play.
Last but not least, we stopped at the puppy and kitten shop to watch their newest acquisitions at play or sleeping. In answer to the question in an earlier post about the cost of these, the cheapest are 850euros and some are more than 1000 to buy!
On Thursday, all packed and ready to go we had breakfast at a nearby cafe and set off for the airport and the journey back to Ashton via Bristol and Leominster.
