London

Camille and Cindi left us on Wednesday to return to VA.  We miss them terribly but it was a wonderful visit.  Harry told me more than once that Cindi assured him they would be back.  I told him it would be a while but Lala and Grandaddy were coming soon.  I meant soon as in 6 weeks, he interpreted it as soon meaning any minute.  He kept asking me yesterday when Lala was going to get here as if she was going to walk through the door any minute.  Cindi and Camille also took the good weather with them.  The highs here have returned to the 60's and clouds and rain have arrived as well.  I am posting some pictures of the trip we took into London while Cindi and Camille watched the kids. 

After a pleasant 30 minute ride on train we arrived at Paddington Station.  We then walked through Hyde Park on our way to catch the double-decker tour bus.

Tea at the Athenaeum Hotel

The tea was delicious.  We started with an assortment of sandwiches followed by scones and crumpets.
I highly recommend it!

We ended the day in the West End.  We saw a show called Priscilla Queen of the Desert about 3 drag queens driving through Australia in a bus.  It was hilarious and pretty racy.  Christopher told me he felt a little nauseous during the first half and I wasn't sure if it was from the rich food we were served at tea or the scantily clad men running around on stage.  I'm not sure if he's recovered yet.  I thought it was great.
