Tomorrow we’re flying to England. We’ll be in Bamburgh, Northumberland for a week with my husband’s parents, then a week in Llanfairfechan, North Wales with my parents and my brothers and their families (that will be a group of 16). I’m looking forward to seeing everyone and being back in England. We haven’t been back for three years - we’ve seen our families more recently than that but in other places.
I didn’t make plans this time to have anyone post while I’m away, so CatE will be on vacation for a couple of weeks. If you want to be reminded when I get back, you can sign up for Weekly Email Updates here
.
Those go out early Monday morning and list any posts from the previous week. You can also check my personal blog. If I run into some wi-fi I might post a vacation update on there.

I look forward to you “postcards” on this blog. Are you going to Bamburgh Castle?

I’d like to go to Bamburgh Castle. We stayed a couple of miles from Bamburgh in 2004 and went around it then; I’d be happy to do it again. We also went to Alnwick Castle, famous now because it was used to film some of the Harry Potter films. That was my husband’s first time in Northumberland and he really enjoyed it.
I’m not sure about postcards given the apparent lack of wi-fi in Northumberland. You might have to wait until I get back!
