Pictures that got lost in the shuffle!

Some of these are months old. But in an effort to document my adventures here, I want to make sure that the important ones make it onto the blog one way or another...even if some are two months late.

Because we should never forget where we come from... (Also, I was freezing, so please excuse my scary paleness.)

Also freezing and not entirely happy with the wind. But I can check Stonehenge off my list!

Looking up into the rigging of the Cutty Sark in Greenwich

The gorgeous Painted Hall, also in Greenwich

One foot in the East, one foot in the West

My favorite painting at the Tate Britain. It's huge and very impressive in person. (Queen Elizabeth I)

I FINALLY had real afternoon tea with all the trimmings. (Well, not ALL the trimmings because that would include champagne.) But until last week, I had always opted for cream tea: a pot of tea and a scone with cream and jam. I had such a wonderful time drinking tea and sampling finger sandwiches with a good friend at the Orangery.
