Back in London

…arrived this morning at 6:30 just in time for rush hour

The flight was only 6 1/2 hours but the drive from the airport took us almost two hours. After a two hour nap we took a walk from our flat (next to our son’s flat) to the local green grocer/mini market. We picked up a few essentials and when we got back we met up with Sevin who had just returned from school. She helped us put away our groceries and then we went next door where mama was preparing dinner for us.

Sevin entertained us with stories about her day at school. She is in reception which is like our senior kindergarten. Then she showed us her latest work of art.

I took a very long walk through High Park today and logged over 10 000 just this morning. I was very glad for a place to sit, especially after climbing the hill up from the zoo.

Part of our local park has been fenced off for a restoration of the shoreline. A fence is one thing but they’ve also put a fabric covering along the fence so you can’t see the lake or what’s going on on the other side when you’re sitting down.

Many of these benches at the High Park Zoo are facing empty pens that are also going through renovations.
