This morning started incredibly early with the alarm going off at 4:30AM. Within the hour we were on the road heading to Asheville Regional Airport. Easy trip through security then a Delta flight to Atlanta. From here we will catch a flight to Dallas-Fort Worth to be with family members for a while. We’re flying on a One Way ticket and have no idea how long it will be before we’re back on the road with our 400.
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.
