It's really hot here!


Who packed our bags? They forgot shorts!!! OMG it is in the 80's here. Deb and I arrived at 5am and already the temperature was going up. The locals tell us this is unusual. Just in time for the Royal Wedding.
Today we walked at least 5 kilometers to scope out the Procession route. I found these great fellows who are preparing the streets and I really want one of those vests.
It is beautiful here. Everything is green, leaves on the trees, tulips and lilacs are huge and very fragrant. The souveniers of ANY to do with Will and Kate are abundant. The people are happy and friendly and there are a lot of tourist here already.
We enjoyed a delicious Pub dinner at the Jagged Hare which is one of the oldest pubs in London. We both had 'steak and ale' pie. Yummy!
Tomorrow we are off to the Victoria & Albert Museum and dinner at Tom's Kitchen which is were William and Kate have eaten.....I gotta get a picture of that!
Did I mention how fantastic the cappuccino is in Europe?
