June 2026 - Africa (and a little time at home)
Home for a brief rest as we head to Alaska and Canada at the beginning of July. The Africa and Alaska/Canada trips weren’t meant to be so close to each other but we’ll cope! 😂 Before I get to Africa, it was lovely to spend a couple of weeks at home. Caught up with our mums and spent time with all our kids and our gorgeous grandbaby. We even had a sleepover with our granddaughter to give her parents a break. She is a true delight and brings the whole family so much joy. And, of course, we spent time with our much-loved doggies, Albus and Harry, who enjoyed a doggie holiday at the kennel whilst we were away. We are away a lot (although, usually, our daughters look after the dogs) and the dogs are so forgiving of us. Lick us to death when they see us and then act as if we were never away. I heard someone call dogs at our stage of life, “The kids after the kids grow up.” Truer words never spoken!! So, Africa…..WOW! We had a week (as a three-generation group of seven) at Mabali...
