We arrived safe and sound just very tired.... gee its a long way....without sleep... flight was good bit rough over the Middle East.... left Sydney and hour late but arrived at Heathrow on time... London supplied us with a nice sunny day...
After collect car, I took the liberty of getting very LOST!!!! but we saw heaps of the country side.... and it is beautiful....
After finally meeting up with Ron & Shirley Currell in Bicester, we had a well deserved coffee.. Ron then took Beth, Linda and I for a walk to see the local graveyard and church..
The Grange Cottages are to die for, the country side is yet again beautiful... the animals make us feel right at home with Harry the black Lab, Tilly the cat that laid on your foot with every step, Alpacas, and an Irish Horse and 3 ponies...
We had our first English Pub experience and it was everything we thought it would be...Yes a fire and great personalities.... not to mention a yummy curry... On leaving the publican gave us a memento to take home, a house shoe plaque, very fitting as dad loved his horseshoes....
We all enjoyed a good night sleep, just want to find our land legs... still get the odd sway happening..
Today we are off to Swanbourne to meet some of Ron's family and walk the grounds of our ancestors....
Stay safe
Lots of love the Girls....
