A little off the beaten path we found Rockefeller Loop, another grove of ancient trees but fewer tourists. For a while we had it to ourselves. Here oxalis grows on the forest floor like a lush green carpet. We got off the loop trail to follow the Burlington Trail for a while across the South Fork of the Eel River and deeper into this awesome stand of enormous trees. Thank you Rockefeller fir helping to preserve this for future generations!
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.
