Last day

Auntie Dottie came over this afternoon and we took a few snaps while Milo was eating "Din Dins".  Then we all had a turn in the garden, as mum showed Milo some flowers, and a delighted Milo couldn't be more thrilled with his "own" daffodil.  It's been a great trip, with good memories and sad goodbyes.

Last time at Jon & Caz's and with my precious nieces

Well today was the day I had to say my final goodbyes to Jon, Caz, Maya &  Violet.  Isabel came over with us to Jon's too.  We had a fab roast beef and yorkshire pud dinner.. with lots of puddings.  We enjoyed playing Hide and Seek with Violet and singing nursery rhymes with the girls.  Saying goodbye to Maya and everyone was heartbreaking.  Distance is painful, but I loved every minute of the time I spent with Jon, Caz and the girls.  Maya, if you are reading this... I love you so much, and I will miss you so much.
Adorable

London finally with Caz & Violet

Took the train today with Milo, on one of the last sunny days (possibly) before we leave.  Met up with Caz & Violet and walked around Covent Garden, stopped at a Cafe, where Violet wanted to keep running after Milo and hug him.  Milo unfortunately didn't seem to enjoy the attention. We then had lunch at Pret A Manger, and ended up in Trafalgar Square.  Great morning.
