Reunited


View Larger Map
After a long wait (and in very different weather from when we last saw him ) we have been reunited with Rocky. Leaving Long Beach on the 25th March, he arrived into Tilbury docks on the 30th April, and a few days later he finally arrived home .
We were very glad to see Rocky again (Named Rocky by the children as it was in the Rocky mountains that we got stuck in the snow !). We were not so happy tho to discover a stow away ....
This Female Black Widow spider had been very busy laying eggs during Rocky's journey, and decided to come out to say hello as we started to unload the spare doors from the back of the bus ! I'm not sure if she or I were more supprised by the encounter, but introductions were fairly short - and terminal !
