How absolutely lovely to remember such holidays!! Many years we would go up into the Sierra Nevada mountains in California, and hike and swim in mountain lakes. My favorite is the beach! Sometimes we’d go to enjoy Half Moon Bay, the cold pacific waters. Many times it was foggy and grey, but a treat, none the less. Thank you for your delightful descriptions of your family memories! Have a magnificent week ahead!! 🙏🏼♥️
Dear Ann, thank you once again for all the memories that your writing brings forward for me. In the 1950's we would always have a family holiday. Scarborough was our usual place to visit as it was about as far as our old car could travel without breaking down! When we did venture further afield Dad would hire a car. Other memories are about working on a Fun Fair at a place called Crimdon, where I started working in the 'roll a penny' stall and was eventually promoted to being a Bingo Caller - 'Eyes down look in, any straight line or four corners to win. etc!! I notice you mention William the Lion, well interestingly it turns out that he is ancestor of mine 30 generations Back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_the_Lion
