London2007

We arrived in London after travelling Air New Zealand business class It was wonderful the service, also the opportunity to lie down and sleep made all the difference. What comfort!

Simon had arranged for a car to pick us up at the airport, and soon we were on our way to Simon and Sarah's.

We arrived ready to get going on our visit to see Simon Sarah and Rosie, our dear little 2 year old grandchild. We had seen her the year before as a 7th month old, but this time she had grown up so much. We felt so blessed to have the opportunity to get to know her well.

As you can see Gordon has settled down with his ANZ slippers on. The weather was amazing, and as this was Gordon's first time in England he didn't realize that England actually had a summer. The first weekend we all went to the Natural History Museum, they had an exhibition on of prehistoric dinosaurs. We then went to see the Butterfly house.

Sarah managed to get us a trip to Paris for the weekend going on the Euro Rail, which included a very comfotable Hotel so close to all the main Museums. We used the bus which most cities have, showing all the main places of interest. We found this so good as we saw so much more than we would have done under our own steem. to be continued later.
