Our next adventure began a couple of hours ago when we left home after dark to head to the Greenville SC Amtrak Station and The Crescent scheduled to depart at 10:58PM. With some time to spare we checked Yelp! and chose Soby’s in downtown for dinner. Good call! Our choice off the chef driven menu was to share a most delectable Pork Tenderloin dinner followed by a Snickerdoodle Cheesecake. The cuisine exuded Southern style and the service did too. Got a text from Amtrak while we were dining advising us that the train is running behind schedule. We lingered long enough at table that the ice rink was cleared of skaters by the time we walked past on our way back to the truck but the festive lights along the street made for a delightful scene augmented by the crisp chilly air.
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.
