Last week, my sister sent me a picture.  They are on holiday in England.  Their first English holiday for more than 26 years.  They have gone to the seaside.  

Whitby hasn't changed at all.  Sea, sand, and sometimes sun.  The restaurants are still serving the same meals.  Fish and chips and mushy peas.  A Yorkshire speciality. And, life on the beach hasn't changed, either.

Small children, sand castles, donkeys, ice cream vans, and Punch and Judy.  But, one thing has changed. My sister's children have all grown up.  This holiday is a very quiet holiday.  And, this, too, is a very good thing.
