On what was maybe our last sunny day of our visit (the 10 day forecast does not look good, but it has been wrong a couple of times) we walked back up the the big cemetery to see it in the light. I really love cemeteries. I think it is so interesting to see how people mourn and pay tribute to their dead. I am happy to be home this Christmas because our family cemetery does a luminary close to Christmas. I have either not been home or just not made it in the past but want to make sure to make it this year.

In October when there were tons of horse chestnuts everywhere, I saw quite a few older women picking them up and now I understand why. We saw quite a

few graves decorated with conkers.

Jane enjoying some free time, running away from us, of course.
