bye Christchurch / hello Windsor

Yes, we have to see what the Queen is up to.
It's Thursday and we have to leave. Kate and Dave have been wonderful hosts and we enjoyed the time very much. See you in the USA? We hope!!!

The drive took Stephen an hour and a half. No problem. The weather is so good that Jane opened windows and doors and we looked at the garden. One of her waterlilies was blooming. We could sit outside and even have lunch there.



I had a text from Helen that today was the last day to send William a "bunk note" to camp. He is this week at a sleep-over church camp and this is a great website. It is his first time away by himself. We can send him notes and even include a photo. They will print it and give to him. Here is our photo. There might be hope for me taking selfies.


The four of us were antsy and decided to go for a walk. Of course we went to the River Thames. I love it that we really don't need to use a car when we are here in Windsor. Jane lives so convenient.



We walked along the river and then over the Eton Bridge.


Back on the Eton side. I had never done this walk on the Eton side back over another bridge. Love to experience new things. Look at this sign.


Stephen has sold the house and is in the process to buy a river boat to live on. He will get it in about a month but showed us a brochure. So we had fun seeing the boats here.



When we came back over the other bridge we happen to see the duck boat driving into the water. 





On the way back we came past St Stephen's Church where the family has attended for 150 years. 


Back to Jane's house and chilling. The last weeks were full with happenings all the time. Good to get ourselves a bit organized again. Silly things like charging gadgets and answering emails. Jane had a request and I was happy for once being able to do something for her. She just got an apple computer and had a church brochure which is in a program (Publisher) which her new computer doesn't recognize. I love my Mac Pages and was able to transpose it for her. I had the same issue with Pagemaker when I changed computers. Actually, the reason why I left my PC is because when Windows "upgrade" to 10 it made my program (which had cost me a fair amount some years ago) into a pumpkin. Boo-hoo! 

Anyway, fun to accomplish something ... Time to go to bed.
