It’s the beginning of the Deck Day gathering. Gail and Lynne arrived from Cincy last night bearing gifts of hometown food. We’ve spent a crazy morning doing party prep and shopping and are now reveling in a quiet moment and savoring Graeter’s Black Raspberry Chip Ice Cream. Shortly Jay and Liz will arrive and the busyness will resume. But for now we ‘re just glorying in the flavor of our favorite ice cream and grateful that Lynne reads our blog.
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.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
