greg has been in london for the past week. here are some of his photos:
st. paul's cathedral seen from the millennium bridge . .
the globe theatre, one of his favorite places to walk by but i think he has yet to see a show there . .
fleet street and limeburner lane . .
lemon curd! but it was from whole foods so chanda made him go to fortnum and mason's for their brand because that's her favorite (it's actually a gift she's giving to her aunt kathy . . i hope he is bringing back both . . i love lemon curd!) . .
(my texting conversation with greg when he got to fortnum and mason's:
greg- tell me the brand of lemon curd . . i'm at fortnum and mason
me- fortnum and mason
greg- . . . . . how droll)
she also requested that he go to freed's for a leotard she liked (well, the store was just around the corner from his hotel!!) . . can you tell she's the youngest in the family?
roses in regents park . .
povero puppies! (french bulldogs were first bred in england but became a favorite in paris).
"it's like i've entered another world. so quiet in this private park surrounded by old big beautiful buildings." he was in one of the four inns of court which are societies of lawyers.
just in case you thought you could have a party here . .
It is a pretty walk by the Globe Theatre! I went there with Jonathan, Charlotte, and Miriam and lost a wheel from the stroller. So I decided to visit The Tate Gallery and a nice gentleman there fixed the stroller for us! Peter was somewhere else, doing an excursion with our students.
ReplyDeleteYour texting message is funny. How long is he staying? I think it so hilarious that both of our husbands are in Europe right now. But Peter is not buying leotards and I don't think he is buying any food. So far he has only bought postcards and socks.
postcards and socks . . that's funny :)
DeleteHe is now in Vienna and bought some books :).
DeleteP.S. Have you heard of those two escaped prisoners from Clinton? They were looking for them in our county yesterday.
Books. That is something Greg buys a lot of :)
DeleteYes, I have heard! They have been looking for awhile now . .
Our pastor could not travel to our church this morning (he has three churches). So we had a different priest, one we have regularly, but who was not scheduled for this weekend. Kind of strange to think of these things out here .
DeleteI'm glad that another priest made it out to you. xoxo
DeleteLemon curd is also known as lemon cheese and is totally moreish!! So funny that Greg cannot escape dancing paraphernalia even when working out of the country :-). How many leotards does Chanda own?!! Xx
ReplyDeleteI have totally lost count on what leotards she has :P (and poor Greg, but the leotard was really nice . . very well made!)
DeleteThat's very interesting about the lemon curd. It's very good.
