greg and i had dinner at bus stop cafe. chanda is babysitting. i spent the day working on the london trip posts. this next one includes the victoria and albert museum which is rather extensive . . i took too many photos of the exhibits and it was another day of walking everywhere. i hope i don't take too long putting it together. tomorrow i need to pick up a book from strand for my sister and mail it off for her birthday . . which is monday. hmmm . .
the weather has been really nice. it was warm and sunny, but no more than 80 degrees. this evening it's cool so that i needed to wear my sweatshirt to the restaurant. it's been like that every day this week.
here's the 20th of september, 2022 . . at the victoria and albert in london . .
I hope you get the book for your sister - and that she has a Happy Birthday

Thank you Siobhan! She and her husband went for a visit to Cape Cod. I found the book and hope to get it in the mail Monday.
DeleteAh, the V&A is so big, no wonder you took so many pictures. There is so much to explore! I think your weather is exactly like ours, although last night, in a county north of here, there was a terrible hailstorm and in the south of us bad flooding.
ReplyDeleteOoh my gosh . . while reviewing my photos I was reminded how I sent so many to my sister via cell phone (I knew she would like the paintings just as much). I have a few favorites that are really lovely.
DeleteI'm glad you were spared the bad weather . . but I hope no one was hurt in the bad flooding. It's terrible these days. I spoke with my cousin and while we had a beautiful sunny day, the weather was very grey by her. For us, every night has had a cool breeze. It's been very nice.
Talking about flooding: How is your nephew in Florida? I don't think people were hurt in the flooding, but lots of destruction did happen.
DeleteHe's in the south where there wasn't as much flooding. The Tampa and Sarasota area had more.
DeleteSuch a relief! Did you see the pictures of the floods in Spain? And then there are wildfires in CA. I wish we could transport the water to the wildfires.
DeleteSpain looked dreadful. The California fires are now all year and I think it's exhausting for the firefighters. It's terrible. Well, we have several now here! Six in New Jersey, one in Connecticut and one in Pennsylvania, twelve in Massachusetts and four in New Hampshire. Google added a wildfire indicator in their map app. There's one in New York southwest of Woodstock. (sigh) We could use some rain.
DeleteThe one in California I read about is close to Thomas Aquinas college in Santa Paula. We visited there with Jonathan when he was looking at colleges. I had no idea that there were so many in our part of the country! How scary. Yes, we need rain or snow.
DeleteI think it's very unusual.
