From London to Home

After Hungary, we spent a little more than 36 hours in London before flying/driving home the Lethbridge. Our cat is quite happy to see us and we are quite glad to be in our own space and to stop living out of a suitcase. Not that we didn't enjoy ourselves immensely, but there is something about being home.

While in London we managed to take in the London Eye, Millenium Bridge, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, & Liecester Square the first late afternoon & evening. Yesterday we spent quite a bit of time at Buckingham Palace seeing the Queen's Gallery, Royal Mews, gardens and summer opening of the State Rooms (only open to the public in August and September). Just before that we popped into Westminster Cathedral for a look, and afterwards we headed for The Orangerie at Kensington Palace for afternoon tea. To round out the day we took the subway & daily light rail to Greenwich to walk the Prime Meridian before ending our London adventures back at the Duke of Wellington Pub near Victoria Station.

I am not sure who all is out there in cyber space reading the blog, but if you want to know about something we've neglected to blog about then by all means leave a comment or email. I am not sure what to do with this blog next, I suppose that will be decided some time in the next week when I get over my jet lag. :)

My attempt to post pictures has somehow failed this post. I am way too tired to figure it out tonight- look for the last pics tomorrow or so.

Yeah, I figured that if no one read it then at least I could use it for scrapbooking purposes! I also kept a journal this time to keep track of what we did each day. When you take so much in it is hard to remember it all at the end.
