Suffolk

To start the travel, we went to Suffolk for the weekend. Possiblythis was to remind us just how wet England can be! The ground was sodden, the air was damp, the skies poured down more and more rain but we had a lovely time with Sam and Polly and their three children with the bonus of having Jonathan and Antonia. Now we are in the countdown, making lists of things to do, buying new toothbrushes, deciding which things will be useful in what place. It is difficult to imagine that in a week we will be in someone else's summer. We start off in Dubai with Nick and Amanda and from there we do a lightning tour of Damascus and Beirut, there should be plenty to report.
