ORLA+EDNA+THE RIVER DEE

Edna often used to go down to the Dee to sit on the bench and watch the ducks and boats. However she will be 91 next week and the walk back uphill is now getting too much for her.With the impending visit from sis next month coupled with the ongoing improvements by the riverside, it seemed a good opportunity to go and have a look at how things were shaping up down there. PLUS I HAVE A NEW CAR!

OMG OMG "Edna, you shall be my first passenger!!"




After a little snack in Hickory's we sat on the bench for half an hour. None of the big boats were going out which had me worried as sis has plans for a trip down the river... but

CHESTERBOAT

start up their daily sailings on 2nd April. Traditionally the season starts on Good Friday but this year Easter is so late.



The boats may not have been sailing but the ice cream kiosks were open! Selling the award winning Cheshire Farm Ice Cream.



It was a lovely couple of hours, sunny and warm.

(I'm just dreading the day it rains and Orla's leather seats)
