4th June Monday.
It is the Queen's diamond jubilee weekend here, and a four day weekend (Saturday to Tuesday) Yesterday we saw the end of her flotilla on the Thames live on the TV. It was so cold and wet that we elected to spend the afternoon at the B&B we are staying at.

Today is fine and sunny again, although they are saying it won't last. We went to the safari park at Bewdley today, arrived early and parked the car with ease. Then took the tour bus around the park to see the animals roaming free, and didn't have to join the procession of cars doing the rounds. The minibus was on the grass to the side of the cars and we got a commentary too. This afternoon we returned to Stourport-on-Severn for a late lunch, then walked along the river path almost back to Bewdley. It has been a good day.
