Into Orleans 

Road Trip

Long about midafternoon Greg floated the proposal that we four make our way to Hot Chocolate Sparrow, a landmark coffee house nearby. Thus sustained with hot beverages and sweet treats we headed off on foot to explore the local bookstore, meander past a historic burying ground, and seek a geocache. A chilly gray day is a wonderful time to explore a tourist town without all the summer folks!

National Portrait Gallery

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.

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

Fenton House and Spaniards Inn

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.
