We have begun the rambling part of our summer into fall trip. We made the easy trip from Canton to Homerville OH by way of Wooster and pulled into the KOA. We’ve got full hookups and fancy shower houses but it’s quiet here. We’re surrounded mostly by big rigs. After more than a week of constant visiting between sites this seems too peaceful!
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.
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.
