Final Day Fun

On our final night in town, we went with Dean, Jenny and Livi to Sherborne for the annual Pack Monday Fair. Seeing the abbey lit up at night was great, too. 



Another October event I've never been over to attend, Pack Monday is a huge street fair that went for many blocks, with dozens of vendors selling crafts, goods, food and drinks. Bands were playing and the whole town seemed to have turned up.
This cool little stone building in front of the Tudor building is called the Conduit, and it was built in the 16th century as the washing place for the abbey's monks. 
We found a few souvenirs to buy, along with yummy drinks and snacks. It was great fun hanging out with the family, doing a fun even like this, and I was so glad we were here for it.
Earlier Monday, we went to Auntie Doreen's house after lunch with her and Mandy, Karen and Sue and Gord. We had to go over, to meet her new kittens!
Dolly and Teddy were just 6 weeks old, and as adorable as they come. 
We could all just watch them for hours, as they played, climbed things, and suddenly napped.

And a final photo memory of our trip - one of our meals that Stace particularly enjoyed.
