enjoying a lemonade (sprite for you americans) in the garden of our local
Luke is a walker, and with little to do in our flat, he and Paul have been doing a lot of walking. The closest walk is one that we make as a family at least twice a week to our local. It's small inside and not kid friendly, but the back garden is perfect for families. There is a tree stump, just a little taller than Luke that provides the most entertainment. Paul and I can usually quaff one pint before Luke's ready to go.
taking a break in littleworth common
I gather from conversations I hear with
my colleagues that Esher is well known for its green space.
Littleworth Common is not the closest of these to us, but it is an
easy walk just south of us. On the other side of it is the village
of Claygate.
checking out the boats and the thames
Just north of us is Hampton Court.
Paul and Luke were stuck at the flat several days in a row because
they had to wait for service people to connect the Internet or
delivery people to bring things that we've ordered. Ordering from
Amazon here has given both of us a bit of homesicknesses for Fort
Collins where we can track our packages almost to the hour and where
our deliveries could be left on the porch if we weren't home.
There's none of that here. Anyway, when they finally got a day free
of the flat, they went for a five mile round trip walk up to Hampton
Court where Luke got to walk along the river and see the Palace.
