Day Two in Devon


Leia woke me up several times last night as she had an upset stomach. She has a particular whine when she needs to attend a call of nature, but this meant that I did not sleep that well.

Because of this, my morning walk was not as long as I would have liked.  She loved it, knowing where she was and was keen to get moving.  With the rain that had taken place last night, the ground was slippery and I had to be careful that she did not throw me off balance.  

She was soaking when I got back and my wife and I washed the mud from her.  Later in the day we went to a meal that she had booked.  The place was behind a hidden door, well, not hidden, but a door with notices on it which made it look like it was not there when  you looked at it initially.  The servings were enormous and it certainly was value for money!

On the way home, we stopped at a military collection where I saw a T-34 up close.  I also saw armoured cars which I had learned about recently thanks to YouTube video. We also went to Fremington Quay.  We have been here before, but this time we arrived just too late to get anything. We will return later this holiday.

I am ending the day on a high note, this being despite the loss Arsenal had against Chelski.  Apparently COVID has been an issue for the team.  Unless we improve a lot, I do not see much hope this season.
