The rain on Day 5 wasn't very fun, but all in all it was a great trip, and unless the weather forecast doesn't bode well, we'll likely do it again next year.

I’m writing from New Hampshire in the USA, and so appreciate seeing my (second) cousin Arthur and his family, as well as Anthony… Your photos are enchanting, and I look forward to checking in more often…
