Showing off

My Aunty and Uncle came to stay with me last week.  They now live in Holland, and when they visit "back home" they like to see the hills and rolling English countryside.  They had been staying down south, and had not had very good weather so far for their stay, but they came north and we switched on the sun, and showed off.

 Monsal Dale had never looked lovelier.
 Its a little piece of heaven on earth.

I think Monsal Dale is one of the prettiest places, we take Elsie for walks there a lot of evenings and have many picnics there!

Oh yes, definitely 'heaven on earth' - what a lovely place. Great photos from Chatsworth House too, Diane.

Wind and drizzle here at the moment - hoping that tomorrow will be brighter!
