Day 15 - Old Friends

I have to say that even though I haven't felt 100%, today has been the highlight of my trip. I got to spend some time with my friends Stuart Holgate, Hannah Whitcombe, and her boyfriend, Nick Hudson. We had a lot of fun wondering around Covent Garden catching up.

Hannah is well and it was so good to see her. Her boyfriend, Nick, is so cool. He is in the British Marines. It was fascinating to listen to his stories about his adventures with the Marines.

I am having some unfortunate trouble with my computer. The charger is hit and miss, so I am afraid that I may end up with a dead computer. Don't fail me now baby. So if I am not posting for a while, that would be why.

Also we are leaving for India and it will be a really long trip, so I won't post for a couple of days.

God Bless!

Day 14 - London

I want to be sure and keep up with my posts, but I think the next few days will be short. I am really busy here in London, taking the boys around to all the neat educational sites in London, and then meeting up with friends later in the afternoon and evening.

It is COLD here! I guess it is more of a shock to my system since just the other day I was on the beach! I still can't quite shake this cold that has taken hold of me. I have stocked up on nearly all forms of over the counter medication possible.

I love London! It is such a fun city. I don't normally like the bustle of the city, but there are a few exceptions including London. I love riding the tube and walking along the streets. Tonight my friend, Stuart, and I went to Soho for tea and dinner. Soho is a trendy part of London, famous for great coffee shops and restaurants. If you have been there, you know what I mean.

Earlier in the day, I took the boys on a tour of London and we had our own tour guide. Even though I have been in London several times previously, I learned a lot on this tour. Our guide really knew his stuff!

It is getting late, so I think I'll turn in.
