I'm Baaaaaack!

Well, the Doyles are back from England, laden with tea and books and some pretty cool fossils...and it was a blast! I'll be posting in (historical) detail about the sites we visited, but while I get my photos in order for that, here are a few images I thought you might like:

It being May, we were lucky enough to catch the bluebells in bloom in many locations, but this bluebell copse on Dartmoor in Devon was our favorite:


Along with primroses, which I'm more used to seeing in the garden center, not growing wild!


No, it's not really a snowflake...it's one of the chandeliers in the Assembly Room at Bath!


Is it some primordial monster from the depths of space? Nope, it's a glass sculpture at the Victoria and Albert Museum:


On the straight and narrow on Dartmoor:


Even the chimneys at Hampton Court are worth photographing:


And again, it being May, we saw lambs. A lot of very, very, very cute lambs!


Not to mention cows, source of the copious amounts of clotted cream we consumed.  Here is a new breed photographed in the New Forest, the demi-cow--ideal for smaller farms:


It's great to be home! :)
