Everyone was up early and out of the house by 7AM headed to Shawmut and a Red Line ride to the Amtrak terminal at South Station. At nineteen months Linus is in incredible awe of the “big trains” and totally unaware that when Nana and Grandpop get onto one of the trains for their long long ride that they won’t be going back with him to the house to draw or build with castle blocks or to read books. The next visit will “on the computer.” It’s been a glorious visit and we’ve truly enjoyed being with Greg, Rachel, and Linus for a few days to share a bit of their lives and enjoy beautiful Spring weather in New England!
National Portrait Gallery
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.
After we left the train platform and Linus couldn’t see the trains any more he started saying “Bye Bye Nana and Grandpop!”
It was a wonderful visit, full of tasty food and good conversation. Have a safe trip home and we’ll see you soon “on the computer”.
