Meanwhile, on Instagram...

The beautiful things you can see in Britain simply by stepping outside your front door never cease to amaze me. I mean, we randomly saw this fox hunting crew on the way back to our car—granted, we were leaving the Point to Point race, but still.

Daffodils & Freshly Cut Grass

Daffodils by the Canterbury city walls

freshly cut grass at the rec; smells so sweet

This time of year, bright flowers are a welcome sight. And the grass smells so sweet—like summer. Now, if the weather would just get ten to fifteen degrees warmer, we'd be golden.

More Signs of Spring



This first picture was taken in our garden two weeks ago; the second, last week. Spring weather can be so unpredictable. But, it is getting warmer and the bulbs are loving it. 

Come to think of it, so am I.

Beer Garden Weather








Beer gardens are one of my favourite British things. When it's warm—or even warm-ish—out, pubs open their gardens for drinking, eating, and just generally hanging out in the sun.

Yesterday was the first beer garden-worthy day of the year, and we were fortunate to be able to take full advantage. We walked to the Duke and had their sunny garden to ourselves for a couple of hours. It was absolutely gorgeous.

Beer gardens are such a great place to take advantage of beautiful weather. I highly recommend visiting one whenever possible.
