Ely

During our stay in Ely, we had a couple of days walking around and sightseeing and I have to say that it is a beautiful City, with its cathedral and many old houses and streets. We spent some time looking around the Cathedral and its antiquities and were amazed at all of its history and architecture, before wandering off to find a café.

On the Sunday we had a visit from my Son Karl and daughter in law Kim, who on this occasion came on their own, leaving the girls to fend for themselves. We chatted and caught up on a few things (as well as watching the flotilla on the Thames) while Sally prepared a wonderful Cottage Pie for lunch. It seems that he is very busy with his work which does not leave too much time for pleasure, shame about this work thing, we are pleased we don’t have to do it anymore. Anyway lunch eaten and enjoyed it was time for them to head off home for Karl’s appointment with work, so we walked back to the car with them and said our goodbyes.
