Wedding Anniversary
Sunday 17th October 2021
We were originally supposed to visit Grandma today, but Chie wasn't feeling well so we decided to postpone. I spent the morning scrubbing mildew off the walls, which wasn't much fun. Erika made soup for lunch, and we had a special afternoon tea as it was our wedding anniversary today. Later on the girls were otherwise engaged with Japanese homework or something and I went for a walk on the heath.

These roses were just from our local Sainsbury's but I thought they were very nice.

The table for our afternoon tea, although you can't really see the macarons here, which were the main attraction.

16:19:27
On the heath later on.

16:23:43
Mixed skies today.

16:30:57
Some good old Welsh GevCham (It's obviously not really Welsh, I call it this because "Boillot" is apparently pronounced like the Welsh "Boyo").

16:34:16
I think this may have been the first proper outing for my new walking boots. I forget.

16:46:48
I had managed to bleach my shirt a bit during this morning's household maintenance chore.

16:57:50
An interesting tree, I thought at the time.

17:01:45
Into the woods.

17:12:30
The barrow.

17:17:04
Nice sky here I thought.

17:17:08
That other little cluster of trees on a sort of hillock, between the barrow and the top of Parliament Hill.

17:18:54
Nice sky again I thought.

17:20:34
Top of Parliament Hill.

17:20:46
Heading for sunset already it seems, although it wasn't supposed to be until 18:03 today.

The London skyline.

The view down Parliament Hill.

I found an unusual spot - for me - to sit and have another glass of wine while watching the sunset, aided by this cardboard tray I had brought along, which helps to create a flat surface on the grass so the glass doesn't fall over.
