Arrived at Horn's lodge last night in beautiful, bountiful Kent at Oona and Kiefer's Omi and Grandad's home. Oona had an early morning swim, gathered two eggs from the chicken house and said she would take "two ones" to Omi, sat behind the wheel of the grass mowing tractor with Grandad, went for a boat ride on the pond with her daddy standing and rowing like a gondalier while Oona sat with an oar in the water at the back to steer. And then Oona took her blankey and fell asleep on the green grass with the dogs. To back track, Aija from Latvija with her boyfriend James came for lunch in London at Sonja and Alex's house. Sonja last saw Aija when she came to Canada on her first flight ever 10 years.
ago when she was 18. Aija now lives and works in England and flies all over the place.
After lunch, a walk and a visit, Aija and James left, Sonja and Alex packed the car with 2 baby seats and luggage and nappies and snacks, and I tottered off to the tube and train station as the car was full. Had a very peaceful 40 minutes on the train to Kent. Somehow I was supposed to arrive first but Sonja and Alex beat me to it. Very good nights sleep here in the fresh air.
