Greece - Isand Life

The view from our sun loungers - during the day and at sunset (I've included my toes as proof of this pic's authenticity)

We stayed in Panormas on Skopelos island (Sporadic Isands)... George having breakfast on the "stoep of our apartment, the view from the apartment "stoep" and the pebble beach.... I counted about fifty steps from the stoep to the beach...

George found these beautiful sea urchins while diving...one of my favourite mornings was taking the kayak and exploring a stretch of the coastline to the next village...there's that beautiful sunset again...

Much Ado About Nothing


Smallhythe Place in Tenterden (Kent) provided a lovely backdrop for Shakespeare's comedy. Ellen Terry, the grande dame of Victorian theatre, owned the estate. After her death, her daughter set out to make it a permanent memorial to her mother. The barn has been converted into a theatre and during the summer, plays are held outdoors - we didn't miss the opportunity of booking tickets and enjoying the evening.
