Tootling around SE England

Monday 27 September to Wednesday 20 October
We rented a car for over 2 months to get around in the UK. These three weeks we tootled around the South East and we were so happy reconnecting with friends, enjoying house parties, cooking, going to lots of pubs and restaurants and doing some sight-seeing in-between.

Unusual for Autumn.
