Our European tour started in London visiting our friends Tyler and Ruth. We took a boat ride down the Thames River to Greenwich on a spectacular Saturday with the Tates.
Of course we took a picture near Parliament and the Clock Tower housing Big Ben near the dock where we caught our boat tour.

Portion of the Tower of London and the “Gerkin” in the same shot. Just goes to show you London is both old and modern.
I thought of my sister-in-law, Annie, when I saw all the wisteria in Greenwich. Just beautiful!
So our visit caught Tyler and Ruth in the middle of a move, which turned out to be a huge blessing since we didn’t have to invade their space for 4+ days. We took their old flat and they took their new flat. We did however help them move a shelf to their new place. What a scene seeing four people carrying a big old shelf down the street to the tube station where we were told we absolutely couldn’t take said shelf, so back onto the street to the bus stop and thankfully the bus driver let us all on, shelf and all! Fun times.
I’m excited that you got to see Britain during wisteria season! It was one of my favorite sites when I was there in 2005. Loved it.
