Was in England for a week. Didn't see much of it...a few hours in Stratford--very pretty there. I don't remember much rain but it was chilly. Hated the food. Couldn't wait to get home. It has been my only trip off the north American continent.
Have been to London when it rained lots. Then I've been there when it was nice and sunny! Didn't realize how much training the taxi drivers have. Wow! Didn't know how many streets are there either. They spend 4 years in training and have 26, 000 streets - told to us by one driver.
This is where my son-in-law is from and where they spent their christmas this year. I was sent a lot of wonderful pictures. They look like they had the best time! Next year they may be coming here. That would be a nice treat and if not I will be going there!
