The Grand Finale: Ode to the Dames Family

Thank you guys for hosting us, showing us around, and, most of all, being such wonderful friends. And thanks for sharing your neck of the woods with us. We wanted to show you what we saw of your own "backyard".

The lovely street that we walked to get to the tube station was a wonderful way to start the day and great welcome home from scurrying about the city. And you can't beat the delivery service:



Even the side streets are pretty vignettes:



I've never seen florists so lovely:



Or flowers so fresh and abundant:



And then to come home to a beautiful building:



I can't imagine how frustrating the 4-hour per load washer/dryer must be. I wouldn't want to try to get on a bus during rush hour in the rain. I can't imagine trying to drive on the wrong side of the road. But, boy howdy, do you live in a beautiful city. How enchanting. Thanks for sharing it all with us!
