A couple of weekends ago I went back to Colchester to get away from it all up here. I took Hermione and Max (as I had no cat sitter) and had a thoroughly good time celebrating Julia's birthday. I took Hermione for a quick walk up in Highwoods Country Park and it provides this view of Colchester. Most notably is the green-roofed tower on the right which is Jumbo, a victorian water tower and the thin tower on the left which is the courthouse (or british equivalent)

Weekend getaway
I wish it were mine but in reality this was the venue for a party that Jenny and I went to this past weekend. A friend of her's from university turned 30 and she had a big celebration. There was food, drink, friends and fun to be had. I got to use my tent for the first time in Britain and discovered it still works. Yay! This was Hermione's first adventure in sleeping someplace other than a nice warm house and bed. It wasn't very cold and in fact the tent stayed really warm. However, i don't think Hermione slept all that well because when we got home on Sunday she marched right upstairs and jumped on my bed and took a very long nap. If you click the picture you can see more photos on my Flickr page.
