Friday 15th June 2012 – 'Intent' (167/366)

The Boy received a 'That's Not My Colouring Book' colouring book from a friend for his birthday and has really taken to it. He sat earlier choosing his picture, then I could hear him saying, "You need a red, an orange and a blue, but we haven't got an orange so I'll use yellow." I looked up and he was colouring in the picture as the example one was coloured. I was very impressed with my little man.

Saturday 9th June 2012 – 'In The Distance' (161/366)

Today was the last day of our holiday. Having travelled from Devon to Dorset yesterday afternoon, we spent the day in one of my favourite places: Bridport. I always know when we're almost there on the winding country road because to my left I can see that hill with the small copse of trees. Today we wandered around the market stalls of Bridport and as I rounded the corner onto West Street, I saw the hill in the distance. With the bunting flying, it was a wonderful sight.

Thursday 7th June 2012 – 'Skyline' (159/366)

We were going to go to Plymouth Aquarium today because of the rain. So we drove for an hour in the pouring rain. We queued for half an hour for the car park, then were told there was a further half an hour wait to have a space, before being told that there was an hour queue to get into the Aquarium.

So we decided to go on the Wheel of Plymouth instead. As we parked, the sun emerged and the rain stopped. We had a pleasant, albeit windy, stroll up to the 'Eye' only to be told that it was near closure due to strong winds. We could go on if we wanted, but the carriages were swaying severely and I could feel travel sickness coming on at the mere thought of it.

We went to Pizza Express instead.
