A quick retrospective on the Easter weekend. We started early (on Maundy Thursday) negotiating snowy Welsh hills, and the dreaded M6 queues, on our way to visit family in Cambridgeshire.
We soon left the snow behind, graduating to wet and windy on the Friday, and something resembling a nice day on the Saturday. Managed to fit in a couple of National Trust properties - Wimpole Hall and Anglesey Abbey - hadn't been to the former before, weather wasn't too great so didn't get to see the grounds but the house was nice.
Managed more of a walk round the grounds at Anglesey Abbey, and had been round the house before - in fact somewhere there is a very old scrapbook in which as a child I drew some of the jewelled crosses on display there.
Back home on Easter Sunday - a much nicer day, and lovely quiet roads - and when we got back, spotted the first swallow of the year swooping round the yew tree in the garden!
