A Perfect Sunday in England

Today has been quite a different Sunday for us.  Ryan had to go into work for several hours today and I am preparing to go into town and do something I have not done in ten years.  Amongst all the feelings of anxiousness I am looking back at how last Sunday went down.  We went to church and then decided to walk into town.  On our way we stopped into Bathhampton for lunch at the George.  It is situated perfectly against the Canal and the beautiful river boats. Being Sunday we ordered the roast for four and accompanied it with a jug of Pims for the grownups.  With all the lovely sun we have been having lately, it made for a perfect end to our weekend.  I love when our weekends are about relaxation.  Since we went on an eight hour country walk yesterday, my legs and feet are definitely feeling it this morning.  It makes me hope I can get in a little of this relaxing luxury from last weekend sometime later today. 


Q: What did you do this weekend to relax?

  5. That looks amazing. I think I need to come and visit you so you can take me to this pub!


    This weekend I relaxed by hitting up the local high street and hotfooting it to the nearest pub. It was divine just chilling out for a few hours with great conversation and even better music!

  8. I agree! We are looking to be in London soon too, so maybe we can meet up. :) There is nothing like pub life...its my favourite aspect of life in England. x

  9. Oh yes, sometimes I forget how long we are out and usually on the walk back I'm reminded. But its like the main form of exercise we do regularly, so I love our country walks. Thank you Crystal about the audition. Oddly enough I think I was the only actress out of the four, not nervous at all. Except that its been my first audition in like 9 years so I realized how much I need to work on my cold readings. Pretty much know I need to work on that aspect of auditioning now. However it really sparked my interest to just go to all the auditions I can now. :)

On sunday i spent a couple of hours at the beach with my girl friends :) It was a magically relaxing weekend.
