Well before we move on from Kent and onto the next place I lived as a child. I would like to share some of my favorite places in Kent. As you drive through the Dartford Tunnel and on the Queen Elizabeth the second bridge, you see wonderful Kent, it's amazing. It is like you have escaped into another world. You see those rolling hills and for me there is a sense of home. I never visited Kent as a child although all of my mum's relatives lived there. Well, take that back, I did go to Maidstone once. I will have to say my love of Kent has grown more as I see it as an adult. I see the tremendous beauty and how rich in my mother's heritage this place is and the wonderful wealth of history hidden it's every corner.
My brother and I loved driving to St.Margaret's Bay it is so pretty and is on the outskirts of Dover. I loved Chilham, a quaint village where a drink of cider from the local pub has you been transported to long ago. These two places bring back memories of the days that my brother and I would drive to them. Once on the way to Chilham Scott's car ran out of petrol opposite was a petrol station. The problem was the place to put the petrol in was on the side where the traffic was merely going by us. I remember looking around the quaint shops in Chilham, and it seemed for a moment life stood still.
So let me entice you by a few photos of these two places and we'll go there again when I blog next time.
Wishing you lots of Tasty English Delights
There's always room for one more.
