Favourite places

     We all have places we love to visit or would love to go to. As I'm a bit tired after a long day doing life stories and gardening I thought I'd just share some of my favourites....




It doesn't have to be this particular garden centre but this one at Westonbirt is lovely. Apart from plants and trees it sells really yummy flapjacks!











This is one of thousands of trees as the
arboretum.....great bark!
















I know some of our readers will recognise this place......we've already booked to go back there next year....can't wait!
  
    Meanwhile we carry on doing our homework for the Turkish saga in October....it's not easy as the Greek ferry companies don't have reliable timetables so you have to track down helpful people on the islands you want to visit.....all takes time.  The Turks on the other hand are extremely organised and helpful.....so far so good!! We've got a rough idea of what we want to do now which, as you can probably guess, involves getting on to an island or two.  We think we'll go to Lesvos after Izmir as we can catch a ferry a few miles up the coast from a lovely seaside town where we'll stay for a night or two.  Before all that we'll hop trains to see as much as we can in the time we've got.
