After taking off from work for the trip to Alaska, it was near imperative for Karen to work this weekend, Birthday or not. Steve went to the Arts Center for Saturday Open Studio and at the end of the day presented Karen with a pendant crafted from silver and Alaskan opal. It looks like the view from our window at Alyeska Lodge! We had dinner at Limey’s Pub including Guinness. Limey’s had a map of the London Underground and that prompted CJ to tell tales of London!
It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
It was at Bletchley Park that the Allied Codebreakers deciphered German military messages during the Second World War. A free guided tour gave us a good overview of the campus and the activities that occurred here from 1938 to 1945.
A lovely way to spend a Sunday in Hampstead. We visited the historic Fenton House to view lots of lovely collectibles, to listen to and learn about harpsicords, and to tour and linger in the garden before heading off to the historic Spaniard’s Inn for a most delectable Sunday Roast.
