John,
I had a wonderful trip to London to visit Heather and Michael, they were
wonderful hosts and gave me lots to see and do in their beautiful city. We
took a walk along the River Thames, saw Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, the
Parliament buildings, Buckingham Palace, Trefalger Square, and many more
things in and about London.
They have a beautiful flat that is bright and roomy. I was very comfortable
there, waking up to birds singing and being served scrumptious meals.
The time change threw me a little, but I adjusted and ended up having a
lovely holiday.

#3 Heather staining shelves to put up in the
living room.
#4 Your typical London double-decker bus. They
went all over the
city, take you anywhere. Between the busses and trains, you don't need the
expence or bother of a personal vehicle.
#5 A London cab, very nice ride from the train
station to their
house the first day. After that we enjoyed the walking and train riding
wherever we went.
#6 Beautiful gardens all over the city,
especially around Buckingham
Palace. Lovely couple in the foreground.
#7 No tour of London would be complete without
Big Ben.

a truly large and
beautiful building.
