More 8/30/12


What really thick cream did in my coffee. It was not spoiled. The viscosity was that of oil at -30.

The view from our table at the Savoy.

A really long hallway at Kings Cross underground.

The Savoy Tea Shop.


 I have to say that I am way less than impressed with Blogspot. I can never edit more than two pictures on my iPad and sometimes they come up as captions, other times edits to the right of the picture. Hope you are enjoying.  We are having a great time!


British Library and Savoy Tea 8/30/12

Stopping for Costa coffee! Excellent.

Wimbeldon (which I keep spelling Wimbleton)


























A morning jog, Wednesday, August 29, 2012

There are hundreds of people jogging in the park or riding bikes. Many of the joggers appear to be coming or going  to work. 

This is Queen Victoria, I believe. It is in Kensington Gardens.

Mary, we are enjoying a glass of wine and your trail mix on the flight over!  Thanks!

Here is  Whiteley's (a major department store) tribute to Queen Elizabeth. The artist, Peter Mason, created it with postage stamps (her picture on all of the stamps).  

Here are some pictures from our walk around Kensignton Gardens last night. We stopped in a local grocery store and picked up some bread, wine, chicken, cheese, and fruit. We had a delicious and satisfying meal for less than a 1/3 of the cost of our lunch. 

I am trying to make a reservation for tea at the Savoy for today. Or we might go see the Victoria and Albert Museum.
