Our London Stay

Now, to fill in the gaps: I realized upon review that I hadn't written anything about our London stay. It was too brief. Every stay everywhere was too brief; that is enough reason to return. Pictured below are Richard, Jennifer & Julia on the train from London to Cambridge. We arrived by Eurostar train on Saturday, the 11th and found our B & B in Kew. Sunday, I went to church (see previous entry, The Church in the UK Today) and in the afternoon we walked through the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. That evening, we found our way by tube train to the home of Jon and Kate Grussing (Ann & Paul's son and daughter-in-law) and were well fed and enthusiastically entertained by their four children-- Alexandra-call-me-Alex, Charlotte, MAX (in all caps because he speaks in all caps, VERY LOUDLY, with all those sisters I suppose it's just to be heard above the din), and Madeleine. On Monday, we toured the Tower of London, took a boat ride to Westminster Pier, and "flew" the London Eye (a British Airways attraction, the largest ferris wheel in the world). I had hoped to get to Hampton Court Palace but now I will just have to go back. Shoot.
