This post is very late in the coming, sorry! But I just wanted to write a quick diddy about the trip to Dover we took a few weeks back. We bypassed the town (as it lacks anything of real interest) and drove straight to the White Cliffs where we were immediately offered gorgeous views.

We spent A LOT of time walking along the cliffs, and we made it all the way to South Foreland Lighthouse, where we had to turn around and walk back the way we came. I’m not sure how many miles we covered that day, but my feet were sure happy when we made it back to the car.

Unfortunately we did so much walking that we ran out of time to see Dover Castle - which is supposed to be quite impressive. On the grounds it has the remains of a Saxon church and Roman Lighthouse. Not to mention underground there’s a labyrinth of secret wartime tunnels. My family is coming over for a visit the end of this month, so I have a feeling we’ll be planning a day trip back to Dover.

Now I just have to kick David to write a post about the lovely time we had at the Camrbidge Botanical Gardens yesterday.
