Photos From Holidays!

We had a drive over to Bournemouth and there were rows and rows of beautifully painted beach huts---each one a different colour--it reminded me of a paint colour chart you see in the decorating shops!
This is where we stayed--lovely hotel--all the staff were very nice and friendly!
We found a great Indian restaurant just a few doors away from the hotel---they did 3 courses for £10 and it was worth every penny! Its called The Red Fort-and well worth a visit if your ever in Wimborne!
We also went over to Weymouth for a drive around--parking was a nightmare there so we didn't stop!
Wednesday was Bills birthday as we had a bottle of bubbly to celebrate---it was one I had  for my birthday actually but as Id had quite a few as gifts there was plenty to share with Bill!

On Thursday we went back to the Dorset Heavy Horse Centre--we have been there before and loved it! Well worth a visit if you are in the area.....lots of horses big and small to make friends with-as well as loads of other animals as well!
one of the smallest at the centre--he is sooo cute!
now isn't that a face only a mother could love!
as usual I have come home with more photos of trees than anything else!! Lots of references for paintings in the future!
just round the corner from the hotel we stayed at is the model village---
Bill pointing out our room at the hotel!
Wimborne Minster-which is just a few yards from where we were staying..
when we looked through the window at the end of the minster there was organ music playing and a wedding in process!
As our new baby granddaughter arrived on Wednesday and I had a commission to finish as its being collected we decided not to go the Yeovil hotel as planned for Friday and Saturday nights and we have changed the dates to August instead---so we headed home on Friday and called back at one of our favorite places--Weston Super Mare--all the work that's was being done on the new Pier and promenade has been finished and its looks lovely!We had a lovely walk up to the end of the pier-it was quite breezy out there!
this is defiantly going to be a class subject in the future!
Cant believe how quickly the time went--still its not long til our next trip away! Heading up country next time!!
