Adventures in France - Albi

We loved Albi - it was such a peaceful town and the old town was beautiful with mellow red brick buildings.

The Library - we loved these pictures of Henri Toulouse-Lautrec on the outside.

We never did find out what this impressive building was

The Square by the Cathedral

Note the bowl of fruit on the outside of the window














Our last evening in Albi -  We had a Chinese meal then walked down to this bar for a glass of wine and the Blackcurrant ice cream we loved.  (Sandy will hate me for this Photo I know!)

A day trip to Brighton - July 2024

 We travelled to Brighton by coach which we had boarded in Guildford at 9 am.   By 9.50 we had picked up the rest of the passengers and were on our way.  There was a half-hour comfort stop and we arrived in Brighton at around noon.  Angie and I had a quick lunch in the nearby Harvester and then made for the front and pier  We didn't go on the pier, but made our way alongside to take some photographs of the beach, the sea, and the pier.    The old pier, burned down many years ago. From here we made our way to the famous Lanes and then on to the more colourful North Lanes. The last three are views of the Royal Pavilion - we then left to get a welcome cool drink before boarding the coach for home.
