On Monday July 14th we left our self-catering lodging in Ross on Wye and headed East to Henley on Thames.

Our route was close to 100 miles and as you can see the roads were nice and wide compared to the country lanes we had been traveling on. When we left the M roads as we got close to Henley on Thames we enjoyed driving through some picturesque towns.

We crossed over this bridge as we entered the main streets of Henley on Thames.

This was our hotel for the night and if we knew then what we would soon discover we would have made other arrangement immediately. Live and learn.

This was a wonderful town to stroll through and the walkway along the River Thames was quite nice. More from Henley on Thames soon.

Today, Saturday October 4th I’m heading to the Seattle Center to attend a Tea Festival with our daughter Katie and some friends. I hope to have some fun things to share. We have had a most glorious introduction to October weather wise here in the Seattle area. I’m most thankful for the beauty that we are enjoying.
