….I’m leaving tonight for London, England
I’ve scheduled a few posts ahead of time so you’ll see some activity on my blog until Oct. 2. I’m not taking a laptop with me and I’m not sure I can post from my iPhone. I’m sure I will take a ton of photos but you might have to wait a couple of weeks before I can share them with you.
I’m very excited about this trip. It’s my first time to England and I’ll finally get to see where our son and daughter-in-law reside. My husband and I are travelling with our oldest daughter and her wife and we’ll be staying together for the first eight days. After that Andrea and Josie are taking the train to Scotland and we’ll stay in London.
The only thing that we’ve booked so far is a tour of Buckingham Palace and on the second of October we’re going out to a nice restaurant to celebrate my husband’s birthday. There are lots of places we want to see and and things we want to do in London. I expect that we’ll take some bus tours and definitely walking tours and of course we’ll check out the art galleries and museums.
We haven’t booked things ahead of time because of my husband’s condition. He never quite knows when he can leave the house safely without having to rush to a bathroom. With the time change and jet lag the first few days could be tricky. We’ve done this before and it’s not ideal but spending time with our son and his wife is more important.
The only thing I’ll miss when I’m away is being able to spend time with this sweetie:


HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME! Exciting. Went to England in my 20’s and loved it.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re afraid to fly. They say that it is the safest form of travel around. I’ll try to send photos that convey how wonderful this trip is going to be.

Thanks! I’m trying to post some photos in the evening from my iPhone. The photos on my regular camera will have to wait until I return.

You’re right, London is busy and congested but so full of history and has wonderful parks and gardens.

Have a good trip. I hope your husband is not too uncomfortable. I was going to recommend my favourite Indian restaurant, but perhaps that wouldn’t be a good idea.

It is the Akash, Edgware Road. I ate there roughly once a week for 35 years. Give them my regards. https://derrickjknight.com/2013/07/19/back-to-the-akash/
