London

Oops, missed a day! 
Today we delivered our van to the  storage depot where it will stay for the next six months or so. The rain didn’t help us in our efforts to do the final checks that are needed. 
James met us in the early afternoon, we loaded his car with all our traveling luggage and he drove us to Maddie’s and Kevan’s house. 
We hurriedly dusted ourselves off, changed our garbs and headed to the train to meet the kids in Covent Garden for a belated 70th birthday celebration. 
The surprise was that they had organised tickets to the musical The Book of Mormon - a very special present and a very special show. Totally enjoyed the whole evening. 



Before the show we met up and had some tapas and a wine. 
There is always something about central London in the evening. Of a day it is just another dirty noisy city, but at night it seems to sparkle - especially after it rains!
With the crowds spilling out of the theatres and restaurants, the place comes to life again. 


A most enjoyable night after a pretty hectic day!
