Hotel New Hampshire

I have had the kids to myself for the three days we have been in Portsmouth NH which has been glorious. The cliche of New england in the fall lives up to its name with the most beautiful colours in the forests that surround us.

It is a bit like living the American dream here with white picket fences and everyone in the diner knowing each other, fishing boat on the front lawn and hunting on the weekend. That said I read a lot of Stephen King books when I was young, many of which were set around Portland Maine. I cant help looking in the drains to see if a psychotic clown is peeking out (read 'It').

Caitlyn has been up at a Buddhist centre doing restoritive justice work and the kids and I have been exploring in our SUV. Iris is now fully mobile tottering about everywhere and Matilda is in thrall to her new world and growing up very fast, she is missing her friends at school a bit but cant wait to go to California.

We have sorted the kids sleep pattern out from the jet lag so its time to move time zones again to the west coast 3 hours back.

Off to our regular table at the Sunrise Grill and then coast road to the airport. More from Marin soon.
