KGL (kids get lost)

09/29/2023

Tabitha has been at PGL this week, so Charlotte and I went to Rye and Hastings for a few days. This was Charlotte's first night away from Tabitha, so also mine and Charlotte's first night away together in over 10.5 years.

It felt weird.

(as usual these are going to be the least holiday-snappish holiday snaps. Leave me alone)

Rye is cute

The George is not a place you go to if you don't eat meat. We had almost everything vegetarian on their menu and it was surprisingly delicious. Normally places like this have weak, lip-service vegetarian options but not here.

The George in Rye has a lovely courtyard seating area

I had Eggs Benedict for breakfast, with Linda Mccartney sausages because I am an uncultured swine and they didn't have vegetarian/vegan bacon.

We went to Dungeness. This place is my kind of weird. I loved these vantablack houses, in particular

Some of these converted utility buildings are ridiculous. I try not to be an envious person but damn

Fortunately they were not live-firing today. Also, why do they do this

Steps, as the eastern funicular was out of order (and Charlotte wouldn't get on a funicular railway if you paid her)
