London

Well they made it to London, but NOT their luggage. My mom says that my dad is more fussed up about it than she is. She packed her carry on bag with enough toiletries, make-up, flip flops and clothing to get her by an extra day or two. I guess my dad wasn't so . . . ummm . . . well . . . prepared.

British Air said it should be delivered to their hotel by 3:30pm, but when they finally went to bed at 9:30pm-it still hadn't arrived. I guess the weather is a bit chilly and my mom was able to buy a pair of mittens on the street to keep her hands warm. She hopes to find a reasonably priced scarf tomorrow.

They took the TUBE an underground subway from the airport to their hotel and even rode the Red DoubleDecker bus #9 to Kensington Palace. Kensington was closed for remodel, but they were able to walk around. They think their pretty "cool cats" for navigating themselves around foreign ground. Us girls are very proud of them! I've asked for pictures, but the Internet service is very slow.

Either that or my dad really doesn't know how to download and email pictures.

Okay . . . well I could have a lot of fun with this blog thing, but I better get some sleep myself. Trust me they will probably be calling early am with a luggage update!
