A short update as tonight I'm too lazy to cludge together my ailing laptop with the usual twine and chewing gum so it's the one finger shuffle on my mobile.
Today we said our goodbyes to the
@Beanwood crew with the hopes it won't be for TOO long. I resisted kidnapping kitty Stoli, but just barely. I've always found the appeal of cats to be a bit of a mystery, but I adore baby Stoli and have nicknamed him the Catdogmonkey - or as Kate says the CDM - because 'cat' alone just doesn't do him justice. I hope he doesn't become too serious as an adult for a cuddle and play!
Then it was on to
@Granca's for a very nice walk, play and lunch with Wispa, Tuppence and their human. Carbon had several massive hoolies and had a blast finding fox toys in
@Granca's beautiful big garden. Happy boy! Many thanks to the two girls and
@Granca...and photos to come!
Another hour and we arrived in Folkestone. Our hotel is one of those huge Victorian mansions with a warren of cozy rooms. The owner showed us to our room, fawned over Carbon and said laughingly to him, "Oh you're going to end up on that comfy bed, aren't you?". No fooling her!
After Carbon's dinner we had a stroll in the dark down to the seaside. It was so dark you couldn't tell if there was water there or not, but the neighborhood has some gorgeous Victorians that make it look like a doppelganger for London's Holland Park, which made for a pretty stroll.
Now Carbon is curled up at my feet and in a darn good mood considering that we've left our UK doggie and human friends behind. Maybe he thinks we live here now and will be starting the tour again tomorrow? Whatever is in his head, I'm grateful he's so cheery as I'm feeling more than a bit sad that our current odessy is nearly at an end.
On the bright side, I've got enough photos that I've not edited yet for Carbon to post up until Christmas.
You've been warned.
