Rambling on . . . Time to Relax . . .

At last our final break of the year has arrived.  We head off to the coast tomorrow, and to be quite frank, I feel I really need a holiday.  I have been feeling tired and weary and a little rest and recuperation is just what the doctor ordered.

Time to relax and breathe in the bracing salty air

Long walks across the salt marshes

Dropping in for a delicious pub lunch of crispy bacon, egg mayo and tomato jam sandwiches.

Brambles

And maybe a spot of blackberry picking along the way.

Oh yes – definitely time for a holiday.  The weatherman says it could be a good week – let’s hope so.

As Leo Babauta says ‘It’s time to shut down’.  No computer, no household chores, no gardening – just being.  Sounds good to me.

  11. Ah yes, just what the doctor ordered I think! Sounds divine....I'm off to the lakes for a week as well and like you could do with the fresh air to blow away away a few cobwebs. Enjoy and may the sun shine on you!xxxx

  14. We took a break last week. We didn't go anywhere or do much, but there was a lovely break in the routine and that was restorative. Have a great vacation Elaine!
    P.S. Tomato jam? I have heard of it before, but never tasted it. It sounds delicious!
