Daughter and I have been in London for the past week for the first time since pre-pandemic. We saw SIX at the theater, went to church at St. Paul's, did a day trip to the Lake District, visiting Beatrix Potter's Hill Top Farm, and having cream tea at a hotel near Lake Windemere, went to Daunt and Hatchard's bookstores, walked through Chelsea Physick Garden, had a tour of the Houses of Parliament, did a little Christmas shopping at Fortnum & Mason's, and visited several chocolate shops. Laderach of Switzerland has a shop there now. Yum!

Carolyn, why didn't you tell me you were coming over? I could have at the very least waved to you as you were whisked along our narrow roads on your travels. You must be exhausted!
