Picture of front entrance of Natural History Museum.We arrived at our new hotel yesterday. It is very nice. Top hat doorman and all. Too bad they do things a little different than we are use to. No clock, ice bucket or ice machine, old plumbing and (mom you will love this) an iron with no steam. That made pressing Dick’s suit a tiny bit harder. Oh, well we can’t beat the price and it’s nice to be in another section of London for a few days.
I guess I haven't said anything about the weather. People say that London is like Seattle in its weather and New York in its people and city life. It's true. We've had rain, lots of chilly wind, beautiful blue skies, and gloomy overcast. We haven't minded it at all, but our friends from Texas are a wee bit cold. Also the time change is odd for us. We are 8 hours ahead of Washington. So when the presidential debate is on 6 PM your time, we will be watching it at 2 AM Wednesday morning. When we come home on Saturday we leave here 8:30 AM London time (12:30 AM) and will be back in Seattle 8 PM (4 AM London). We will have traveled for almost 24 hours.
