Description

A varied selection of footage showing Judith Moss in the grounds of Windsor Castle and on swings and slides in Moeder Siska's playground, the Moss family crossing the English Channel and having their Bentley car hoisted onto land from car ferry. Shots include beach scenes and donkey rides on the sea front of Ostend, La Zoute and visits to Bruges and Brussels, with family members shopping on markets stalls and playing balls games. There are street scenes showing people wearing Flemish costumes as walking along and posing for the camera. The reel concludes with passengers boarding a Sabina aircraft and a brief sequence showing the Moss family sitting in the garden back in Salford.
