Sunday morning I woke up in Canterbury and we packed up to travel to Grandma Rachel’s in Bromley. We arrived at lunchtime and had a great afternoon catching up and relaxing. Grandma Rachel made a yummy dinner.
On Monday my dad and I began the cleanup of the garage. While we were sorting through the garage, I found a tripod that had belonged to my Grandpa Phin. It was a lot of fun to figure out how it worked. Then I attached my camera to the tripod and took some pictures. I helped my dad and we found lots of interesting things. We cleaned it up a lot. After that we went out to fish and chips with my Grandma’s friend Liane and her grandchildren Eloise and Zoe. It was really fun and I loved the fish and chips. We are going to try to play together tomorrow.
Tuesday I went to London on the train with dad and we went to the Chinese Consulate. We have to have Visas for our travels to China in May. The Chinese Consulate had very long line and when we got to the front, we told the person that we were traveling to China and she helped us. We are to go back on Friday to pick up the Visas. Then my dad and I went over to Liane’s house so that Zoe, Eloise and I could play. We had a great time together. It was fun to see them again. Then we had a yummy dinner with lots of ice cream for dessert. It was great!
Wednesday was a day in London with my dad’s friend Sharon. We met her at Harrods for lunch in the cafeteria. I had a bagel with melted cheese and then afterwards we went to the food hall and picked out candy from the huge cases of candy. It was really fun. Then I showed my mom the hot chocolate bar upstairs. I want to go there with my Grandpa Don when he gets to London. Then we went to a famous London toystore called Hamley’s. We went up to the very top floor and looked all the way down. Then my mom and I checked out each floor. My impression was that it was a small store, but then there were seven levels of it. I picked out some lego and a model to put together. We went back to Bromley on the train. Grandma Rachel made a yummy dinner of salmon. I had three helpings. It was delicious!!!
Thursday morning we got up really early and went to Heathrow Airport to meet our friends Lynn, Olivia and Sheryl. We had some things to give them for Tori in Belgrade. Unfortunately we missed them. My mom and I raced to Terminal 4 but we missed them. I was very sorry to miss them. After that we drove for a while to visit the Chelsea Soccer Club Stadium for a tour. We met Zoe and Eloise there for the tour. We got to explore the whole stadium and see a museum about the history of Chelsea. I got a Chelsea teeshirt with the number 10 and “Flash” on the back. It was a great day!!!
