One of the delights of living here that we can get local food…thousands of miles fresher. The food from the local farmer’s market is all grown within the county. And this morning Emily (who arrived with her Mom and brother) and Karen went blackberry picking in our cove and made up a small batch of wild blackberry jam. It doesn’t get any more local than that!
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!
