Manchester [Re]United

Having family on the other side of the world has its perks.  Yes, we do miss them year round, but when we get to see them, it is always special and not a single second is taken for granted. 

After four non-stop days in Paris, my mom and I left for Manchester to visit our family for four days that were quite the opposite- peaceful and relaxing.  Every day was a new adventure, from exploring Chatsworth and Bramall Hall to roaming the lovely gardens of Lyme Park.  We spent the majority of our days outdoors at these different historic parks and buildings, and the majority of our nights on our family’s patio eating delicious home cooked meals.  After six weeks of eating out and being away from family, this was just what the doctor ordered.  It also doesn’t hurt that we had perfect weather- high 70s and sunny.  As my family would say, everything was absolutely gorgeous!
