Goodbye Nelly B

The family gathered from far and wide on Friday, to help us say our last goodbye to Nelly. We all gathered at Torekov to take the boat out into deeper water. The afternoon was sunny, with a brisk westerly, that made for a lumpy ride out into the lee of Hallands Väderö that the kids thought was very exciting. In this achingly beautiful spot we said a few words and then we lowered the biodegradeable urn over the side. As the urn sank, everyone dropped decorated and inscribed rocks over the side and we had a little cry before heading back to Torekov.

A good kind of monkey to have on your back
