Thank you for sharing them. Lovely photo of your son & DIL too. My daughter arrived in London yesterday. First full day was spent at Hampstead Heath swimming. Hopefully the heatwave eases soon. Thanks, though not nearly as good as your lovely photos . We have an extra day with Isaac today as he has got croup. He seems well enough but can't go to nursery. Currently at the park feeding the ducks before it gets too hot. We were going to have our first of the season overnight stay on the boat but plans change.... Hope your daughter has a fab time in the UK, weather looks pretty good for the next week in so. Do you have family in the UK? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted June 16, 2023 #95927 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Well, my Pennsylvania grandson was disappointed he missed the baseball playoffs, due to being away on their family vacation. His team capped off their excellent season by winning the championship last night. Evidently, there were championship rings involved. I guess he has to be satisfied knowing that his efforts, as well as the entire team efforts, let them reach that. Meantime, he had to be happy to enjoy his new experiences on vacation. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have family in the UK? I have one elderly Aunt in Exeter that my dad calls every Sunday at 7pm. He was telling me last night that the international phone cards he uses to call his sister are unfortunately being phased out. Dad also has a cousin and many friends in the UK. My late mum’s brother & extended family are in Surrey. My DD and 3 Australian friends are in England for Glastonbury. After 6 years of trying they finally got tickets. My daughter’s best English friend is joining them at Glastonbury. They met whilst her friend was on a working visa in Sydney. Pleased to hear the weather forecast is good as the four girls will be camping at the festival. Hope little Isaac feels better soon.

This restaurant was the highlight of the food this weekend. Hands down delicious. I asked them to make something with banana, shaved ice, and coconut rum. It tasted like dessert. the best truffle fries and pimento cheese with honey 🤤 gnocci I always get food envy when I see your holiday posts. This trip is no exception. Yum!

It is a great ruin and spectacular views. We had a date to meet up with everyone for one last meal before we flew back the next day so we couldn't linger, but there's a nice cafe in the grounds overlooking the bay 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airplane mode turns off data, wifi, as well as the transmitters for phone calls. Think of it as a master kill switch. You can either turn off airplane mode to reactivate everything, or you can turn things on individually. So if you want to connect to the ship's wifi turn on airplane mode then reactivate your phone's wifi. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted June 16, 2023 #95945 Share Posted June 16, 2023 HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY MISS LIZZY. I remember when you were first adopted. That cute pretty kitty has grown up to be a lover girl with attitude. You enjoy sitting on laps, playing with pipe cleaners, and climbing up on our dresser to admire yourself in the mirror. But you have the most fun setting off house alarm. You make our life a complete family. Here’s to many more. 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
