Hi all, so six months ago my nan passed, im beyond deverstated she was my world my rock my everything,
im going abroad soon as my nan lived in lanzarote for 33 years i tried to get a hotel/apartments in lanza but nowhere was avaliable so i decided to go Fuerteventura which is the next island to lanzarote and you can get the ferry to lanzarote for the day.
i wanted to take some of my nans ashes to scatter on the beach and into the sea as she loved the beach and swimming in the sea, but not allowed to take ashes on the plane you need permission and a death certificate etc.
so today (sunday) ive decided to visit my local lake its beautiful and i would take my daughters there as toddlers so its a special place to me. its so tranquil and quite a large lake full of trees ducks and birds so so beautiful.
i have a little poem im going to read out, I feel i need to do this for my beautiful nan. and everytime i go to the lake ill know she will be there
Dear @Chelle-luan
I am sorry to hear of the loss of your nan and that you are unable to take her ashes with you to Fuerteventura. Visiting the lake with your daughters is lovely and will be a reminder that your nan is there and you can go as often as you like unlike abroad. I do hope the day goes as expected for you and please feel free to share the poem with the Community if you wish to.
