Kew Gardens with Nana and Grandad

We have been very lucky and had some amazing weather the last week of Nana and Grandads visit - we spent a day at Kew Gardens, this is N&G in front of Kew Palace

More Nana and Grandad Pics


Nana and Grandad have been here for 3 weeks over our summer holidays, we have been very busy and done lots of sight seeing, caught up lots with all the family, been to the lakes district, taken in a couple of palaces and generally had an awesome time.

Taking cover at Richmond Park
