This afternoon we ventured out to get a few supplies to get us and the T@B 400 through the next several hours: antifreeze for the 400 and Graeter’s Ice Cream for ourselves. Since the 400 has a a refrigerator capacity about twice that of the one in Gigi we stocked up on groceries. But the real treat is that we have freezer space. Graeter’s for now, Graeter’s for later!

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.

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.
