A grand day out

On the Thursday of last week we all went into town so that the visitors could see some of the city. Ian had the day off work, and we started the day with a trip up the Royal Mile, with a stop at Chocolate Soup for some serious hot chocolate. The weather was awful, lots and lots of rain, so the warm chocolate was very welcome.


It was wonderful spending time with Nana and Grandad Plummer, and with Aunty Laura, Sophie and Amy. There are some serious chocoholics in our family.

The hot chocolate was as big as Audrey's head! The way she stared at it was so adorably funny.

We went on to the Camera Obscura, a tower by the castle full of optical illusions and other similar exhibitions, with a camera obscura at the top with which you can see across the city.

We all enjoyed having fun with the exhibits.






Then it was back to the hotel to get warm and dry...

... and out to dinner with Nana B and Grandad Pop!



What a beautiful day Audrey Bea.

    Hi Ray, Ian & Audrey too!

    It's just so fab to be able to log in and catch up with your family news and events. We've been so madly busy recently I've not been able to contact you guys. You were all on my mind a lot this last week or so, and when I looked this morning there's a whole pile of stuff been going on!!

    Your Nan & Granddad look great & little Audrey is so cute - and so nice to se her with her dad so much:)

    We're getting really excited about Gillian & Xavier's arrival on the 28th September at midday!! - as that also means we will by then be very close to our Anna's wedding!!

    Jacqui sends you all her love too xxx - she's very much looking forward to meeting Audrey at Anna's wedding. I feel so blest to have been able to pop in and meet her that day!

    Must go - we have nana, Emrys Christine and Alan round tomorrow for lunch and stff and then we have our New Zealand friend's son Laurence coming to stay on Monday - he's over on some sort of student, Thespian tour - he actually played at the Globe last week on Tuesday night - think it was King Lear, but could be wrong there!

    Loves and hugs to you all -
