A Family & Friends Day

Friday 26 July 

East dock residents

Off to the picnic

In the morning, a quiet period between breakfast and lunch, with a stroll around the fast-food market which had sprung up in the Central Pool square.

A great afternoon out

 

 

 

 

Nadine and Molly arrived, as expected, with sister-in-law Helen and 8-yr old Lewis, and as an extra pleasant surprise, Karen, Alice and Carrick dropped in on their way to the anniversary event in the Olympic stadium.

 We all set off to our picnic spot nearby, on the grass which by now the sun had turned as brown as a beach. K,A & C left after about an hour, and eventually the rest of us returned for some larking about - harmonica blowing, Frisbee throwing, dinghy rowing, and general chilling.

Nuala arrived at Kings Cross around 8.30, and soon after that we were back on the boat happily chatting until bedtime.
