They really enjoyed it. It's so nice to have Uncle Mike talk about the area and cook for you and drive you around. He looks very knowledgeable :)<br /><br />It's too bad Pip was unwell for a bit there . . but I know she got better :)dorinalouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14997381262511104320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795810047529544963.post-10703752025036828202016-04-29T04:46:15.952+01:002016-04-29T04:46:15.952+01:00Sorry, I did not see this reply when typing my res...Sorry, I did not see this reply when typing my response.

There is a steam engine train in this area, also for tourists, but we have never ridden on it. It is so expensive! How far does that train go? <br /><br />I don't think those white flowers can be snowdrops, they do look like a white version of the blue ones. <br /><br /> Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831448349166435125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-795810047529544963.post-54198882625243584772016-04-28T22:44:38.832+01:002016-04-28T22:44:38.832+01:00Oops big fail on the flower ID front!!

The line is a tourist line operated by steam locos and old diesels. On our visit, the loco was that shown on the other pictures here." Pip seems to be a bit better this morning so hopefully she will stay that way. The small flowers are, I think, bluebells and snow drops.

I hope she will recover quickly.<br /><br />Are those some kind of bell flowers? Our tulips are not open yet, too early. We have daffodils blooming. Beautiful sunset!<br /><br />Jonathan also never gets to bed early, maybe a boy thing??Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831448349166435125noreply@blogger.com
