The tale is told

So here we are back home. Life has resumed its normal pace but pictures and impressions still keep popping into my day and night dreams

like

Kind and helpful hosts, friendly faces, snatches of conversations on the train, or in the pub or in the street.

Soft green and flowered fields, narrow high-hedged lanes, roundabouts and ring roads, pretty cottage gardens and thatched roofs,  quiet woodland, animals grazing over the  moors and fields, ancient mysterious stones and Roman ruins, cobbled streets of old towns steeped in history. 

Thank God for a great experience and a safe journey.
