Our holiday to England - part two

We left the beautiful hills of Wales and headed off to Hertfordshire, it took us 3 1/2 hours to get there. I must admit to some nervous feelings as we drove, Northern Ireland has it's freeways, and some of the sections are 4 lanes, but they are not so full of trucks and buses and big vehicles. At one point we were on a 5 lane freeway and there were so many trucks and vans, I felt intimidated. Just goes to show how being in a relatively quiet place can make you forget that there are busy places in the world.

We arrived at James and Elaine's house just before Elaine got there (she was coming home from work) so the timing was great.

Most of the time we were there we chatted and the kids played, it was great to relax. We went to see the new house that they will be moving into sometime this month, a few of the parks in the area, and the horses down the road that they like to feed sometimes. I liked the pathway along the small river, it was very pretty, and there were so many squirrels jumping from tree to tree.
Thai Chi? I don't know but it made a great picture!
Chanel and Rachel were almost inseparable the whole time we were there.Here is how James likes to feed the horses:

We spent Christmas morning and early afternoon with them, it was good to see all the Cousins enjoying their time together.Thanks James and Elaine for having us in your home, even although it is small we were very comfortable there.
