Hello, everyone! I'm finally back in blogland, albeit with a bit of jetlag. We had a wonderful 12 days in England, and for those of you who follow @cranberrymorning on Instagram, you're probably sick of photos, so I'll just post a few now and then. As much as I love England, it's always nice to come home to wide, straight roads, sunshine - along with cold temps and wind :-( and to be awakened by the kittens fighting over my feet.
The photos in this post are of Dover Castle and harbor, on the southeast coast of England. I've always wanted to see it, and I was not disappointed. I thought it was even more interesting and impressive than the Tower of London. In the photo below you can actually see the coast of France as you look across the breakwaters and the harbor.
It was a beautiful, sunny day, and although there were the inevitable showers on our vacation, there were also large patches of sunshine. One just has to be prepared for every eventuality. A packable down jacket under a raincoat served me well. As soon as it got too warm, I could stuff the lightweight packable down into my day bag.
These last two photos are of earthworks around the castle, and on one side are very steep. I was surprised and delighted to see sheep zigzagging their way up the chalky embankment. It's a clever way to keep the grass trimmed.
