Our day at Wimbledon.
We were very lucky in as much as it only started to rain at about 4 o'clock,so we managed to get some actual tennis viewing in.
It was a pretty tiring day but was very enjoyable.
Here we are ready for the off...
After the very long walk uphill from the station to the grounds...(not that I'm complaining but we cabbed it back on the way home!)- we arrived
Wandered round the outside courts
Obligatory photos by Centre Court- notice the subtle colour co-ordination of outfit and flowers!
then it was on to our court - Number 2
We had a great seat and the weather held out for a few hours-then a break for a Pimm's and strawberries and cream
and all too soon- home time. Son wanted to get home to see the Euro game that was on at 8 o'clock and as it was raining and play was going to be off for at least an hour - it was nearly 5 o'clock by now - we decided to call it a day.it was a really good day - nice to spend a day with the boy. I managed a long tube journey too - which is a real achievement for me as I hate them !

How wonderful to actually be there! Envying you all of it, including the strawbs and the Pimms ... Super photos.
What a wonderful day x
Great photos of a lovely sounding day.
Love the way you have captured the whole day. How lucky you were with the weather. Glad you had a good day out with your boy!
Sounds like a great day...pity about the rain, though as you say, it could have been worse!

Love the flower co-ordinated outfit & that you actually did have Pimms & strawberries!! I'd say the rain was a blessing in disguise if it meant that the boy got to see his footie match in the evening....you'd have been a bit miffed if you had to leave mid match otherwise!! TFS! :D
