The Century Inn

2015 New England and MidWest, Ohio, Road Trip

 We discovered The Century Inn today as part of a geocache search at the location of the tollbooth on the old Cincinnati & Hamilton Turnpike. Although we haven’t yet uncovered the cache, it was a fine thing to discover a part of Hamilton County history that links into family genealogy and much of the American history we’ve been delving into recently. All this was on the way back from Kroger’s in Glendale getting things for today’s reunion as well as canned Skyline, Frisch’s tartar sauce, and Glier’s goetta to fuel further travels!

London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.

London’s Canals

The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.

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.
