Left Hot Springs and headed north along SR-7 which is designated as one of the state’s scenic highways. It was rolling wooded terrain with lots of autumn foliage still in it’s glory. Arrived in Russellville and snuggled into our room until friend Alex joined us for dinner. Conversation with Alex is always a delight. Topics ranged from Arkansas history and demographics to ancient history and lots of stuff in between.
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.
A visit to the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden gave us insight into the evolution and role of public transportation in the creation of London as a great metropolitan area.
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
It was so good to see you and chat and reminisce!
