Sunday lunch at the RAC

Image
To cap off the holiday festivities, we all went to the Brooklands Room at the Royal Automobile Club.  Half the family had a traditional Sunday roast, with Yorkshire puddings as big as Dorothy's head! And then a stroll down Pall Mall and across St James Park, with Buckingham Palace in the background.

The Great North for New Years

We all ventured to Northumbria after Christmas- Bella and I by car and Grandparents/kids by train.  The cathedrals of York and Durham were impressive. The weather, less so.  And we found a great little Italian/Lebanese restaurant in Durham for lunch one day.  And the Bemish Outdoor Museum was worth the slog in the bad weather. I have to say all the people we ran across up there were very friendly. Here's a few pictures of the sights. Grand-Dad along Hadrians Wall C and D atop Hadrians Wall All of us outside Durham Cathedral
