We have been away for a week in east Sussex to see my aunt to celebrate her 100th birthday. She enjoyed it all being very independent, healthy and active. Living very close to the sea helps and she tries to walk on the prom most days.
We stayed in a large house, hired for the week, with my sisters and visitors came and went and a fab time was had by all. Luckily the weather was fantastic so included picnics out and dinners on the lawn.
We walked along the Cuckmere valley down to the sea at the start of the Seven Sisters. (white cliffs)
And up on the beautiful South Downs. This is the Long Man-etched into the chalk and later made permanent with white bricks.
The Downs were full of wild flowers, birds and butterflies. Skylarks in abundance. More tomorrow.
what a beautiful place to celebrate 100 years!
