Today we traveled to London and found the journey much smoother than leaving London. The drive to Calais was an easy two hours, we dropped off the car and hopped on the ferry. The ride was smooth and a short 90 minutes to Dover. From Dover we picked up the next bus to London and had an easy traffic-free ride to Victoria station.
From Victoria station we took the double-decker bus to Hampstead past Westminster Abbey, the National Gallery, Camden market and loads more. Crystal's (enormous) backpack caused her to lose feeling in her legs as she had it on her lap for the ride. Yikes. She says it is quite a normal-sized backpack. Alright then, whatever.
In Hampstead we walked up the hill to Sharon's and happily made ourselves at home in her flat. Sharon cooked us an incredible dinner with her famous sole with capers, potatoes with butter and parsley, veggies, salad, bread, wine, brownies and strawberries. It was great telling her about our travels, eating and resting here.
It is nice to be in an English-speaking country and being at Sharon's is like home. It will be nice to come home soon but I look forward to our next visit. More soon.
