Hello and Welcome to my Atlantic Week😊


Well, as promised, here is my week in pictures.....a little different from my usual as this week I left for my hometown of Ayr in Scotland (via London).

First stop Raleigh Airport ✈️

First stop, some good old British Pounds

And now for some British shopping.....couldn't resist a peek in the Harry Potter store 😁

ree

Now, JB will remember this particular store 😉


ree

After a shower.....it's time for a British Breakfast 😋


ree

And before long, it was take-off time again.....next stop Scotland

ree

JB and I lived close to here, just outside London for a couple of years

ree

And Scotland appears...

ree

The City of Glasgow

ree

The River Clyde, Glasgow


ree

On the road again...


After spending a couple of days with Mom and Dad, whilst Mom recovers from her surgery, I ventured out for a wonderful walk along my Scottish beach - the one on other side of the Atlantic (Tomorrow's blog will be full of pics and descriptions of some of my discoveries)


ree

The Heads of Ayr and the island of Ailsa Craig (much more info on these places tomorrow)

ree

The Carrick Hills as seen from Ayr Pier - The Heads of Ayr and Aisla Craig in the distance

ree

A chubby little Scottish feathered friend

ree

Time to head back to Mom and Dad's - Getting a bit stormy looking

ree

The Heads of Ayr through some sand dunes



JB sends me pics of Bailey, Bodie and Pumpkin

ree

Bodie missing his mom...😔

ree

Pumpkin does not appear to be missing me much...😸

ree

Bailey spends a lot of time looking for me out the window 😔


Yesterday was rather cold, damp and dark, so it was a great day to watch the Six Nations Rugby tournament, from the warmth and comfort of Mom and Dad's living room.

ree

And it wasn't long before Scotland scored a "Try" 🎉


(Try = 5 points A try is scored when the ball is grounded over the opponents’ goal-line in the in-goal area.

Conversion = 2 points

After scoring a try, that team can attempt to add two further points by kicking the ball over the crossbar and between the posts from a place in line with where the try was scored

Penalty = 3 points

When awarded a penalty after an infringement by the opposition, a team may choose to kick at goal.)

ree

Then another.....

ree

And so it went until the final score was a 29-23 win for Scotland!!!!! 🏆

Next game will be against Wales on the 11th Feb - Looking forward to that one 😊


ree







Until Next Time...

Take care, Stay Safe and....I'll check in with you tomorrow💕

Love and Hugs,

Pam
