Another busy month, but I did actually find my reading mojo this month, helped along by some relaxing time away.
My OH and I spent a weekend in Liverpool, a city I’ve not visited previously. While neither of us are Beatles fans, it did feel rude to visit and not do some Beatles-related sightseeing, so we took a Magical Mystery Tour that took in key sights such as Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, and some of the key locations to the band members.
We also had a week in France, including a day in Paris followed by some time in Fontainebleau. The weather was lovely, and it was great to spend some time outdoors in the forest there.
So, limited time for blogging, but lots of time for reading! 🤗
