This morning in Santa Fe we wakened to snow patched on the ground, snow flurries in the air, and black skies to the north. So of course we headed south – to Carlsbad Caverns National Park, near the town of Carlsbad, New Mexico in the southeastern corner of the state. We arrived at the Caverns in time to do a quick self guided tour of The Big Room. It’s incredibly massive with unbelievable geologic formations everywhere. It’s one of those places the camera just cannot even begin to capture the wonder. We can only say “Wow!”
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.
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.
