We made a quick overnight trip to Cincinnati. Steve’s cousin Chip passed away unexpectedly on Saturday. We drove six hours through messy conditions to get together with family in Montgomery last evening and to participate in a wonderful celebration of Chip’s life this morning at St Francis Xavier Church before making the drive home. It’s good living close enough that we can make a travel to Cinti when important family events occur.
 
It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
