We both slept like logs, but Debs snores and talks in her sleep! last night apparently she was surfing the big wave on her bare feet! for someone that hates water, cant figure that one out
Sun was shining, birds were singing and we had an English breakfast at the BnB. The beds were very comfy and other than Debs dropping my Vokda and Seven on the floor all was great! Thank god Vodka doesnt smell
We set off to find parking - thank god we gave ourselves extra time - we made the ferry by 2mins. We wanted to stand up top but were not allowed, but it was a quick trip - 15 minutes, on a beautiful sunny day with hardly any wind.
We arrived in Ryde to find Dad, Milly and Darren (our stepo brother that we have never met) waiting for us at the ferry - first thought - omg, my dad looks old. He looked like he will be more of my grandfather, i guess a battle with liver cancer and diabetes will do that to a person. It was good to see him walking though and out of his wheelschair for a while. We had a lovely tea with them for about an hour and then walked the sea front where Deb and I got brave and walked o nthe beach, i even dipped in my feet into the english channel.
Although I had struggled very hard with the thought of seeing my dad cos of past stuff, and so had Deb, we were both very glad we went to see him, almost like ut was somethng we needed to do for ourselves as well as him. He thanked us 2 or 3 times for coming - i hope he enjoyed his day too.
We set off for the mainland about 315 and decided to visit the shopping outlet - i found a VANS oiutlet - sorry Deano they didnt have the shoes you wanted! but i tried! Deb got a few things - clothes at a grocery store - hmmmm - only in England (oh Superstores too).
Went for a drink at a pub in West Ken witha friend of Debs and had a wonderful time, turns out we are related thru the Edwards (his dad is my dads nephew) so we had some wonderful stories to share - and he had sexy eyes too! (i put that there just in case he ever reads this)
Am back at Ruthies with dialup, so no pics tonight, but will put up some tomorrow or Friday.
Love you Deano, miss my boys and my buds - but i have over 600 pics (def not gonna get 3000) and tons of great memories to share with you all! See you in 3 sleeps - wish it was 33 and that my family was with me - i wish i could have shared this with all of them!
Love you,
