School summer holidays are in full swing and we have mainly been home based. Some splendid isolation. Summer holidays reinforces how much of our social connections are based around school. Without school my son has hardly seen any of his friends or spent any time with other children. Without the daily school drop off and pick up, my contact with the outside world has dried up completely.
So after three weeks of home based isolation we decided to make a break out. Just a small one to start with. We had a day trip to beautiful Northumberland.

It was my son who pointed out that after our splendid isolation we had decided to go a place which is cut off twice daily by the tides. Let’s visit a splendidly isolated place. At least we got to see some people in the real world, especially in the queue waiting to cross the still flooded causeway.
Wow! Beautiful pictures and experience! π

I miss the English architecture.

The historical ones are special, the newer builds are not so special.

Very seldom do I get a night alone. I love it. But sitting by oneself ‘stewing in your own soup’ is not good. We are social animals and we need interaction or we get stagnant.
