On the train back to London after a very pleasant day in the south east. We wandered along the foreshore in Herne Bay, and I had an early lunch of fish (cod) and chips; figured I should have fish and chips before we left the UK and what better place than by the sea.
Canterbury was a lovely surprise. Maria did the audio tour of Canterbury Cathederal, the oldest in Britain. Majestic and steeped in history. Unbeknowns to us, it was the Kent food ad wine festival in Canterbury, starting today, so we enjoyed browsing the stalls and sat around sampling some produce on white chairs on green grass with old buildings as a backdrop ... So British.
I've been a bit miserable actually, stuffed head and asthma-breathing, so Maria has had to put up with me blowing my nose and moping around.
Tonight we finish our UK adventure and are pointing ourselves toward Lisbon. While we were sitting in Canterbury today we felt the warmth of the sun for the first time, a little taster of what is to come. Not sure what we'll do for dinner tonight, we had a bit to eat back at the food and wine fair, but either way, we probably won't get to do the celebrity chef thing tonight for a change.
Hope you are all well, love you heaps. We'll upload some more photos later tonight.
