A New Temer in London!

Well, after a long night of travel Clara and I arrived in London this afternoon (local time). Clara got her first passport stamp!!! We took the train into Paddington Station (below)......

and caught a cab to Andrew & Katherine's flat in Maida Vale, where Andrew was waiting to welcome us. It was so great to see him (and Midnight!).

While we waited for Katherine to come home from work the three of us took Midnight for a walk around town, along the canal and around the local streets. The weather in London right now is very much like it has been in Seattle, cool, overcast, but dry. Possible rain in the forecast for tomorrow but then hopefully warming up through the rest of the week.



When Katherine came home we went out for a pint and some dinner. We stopped at a local pub that makes great pies, but they didn't allow minors after 7p. So we had our drinks then found a pizza place to finish off the meal. Clara was practically sleeping on her plate so we wrapped up, came home, got her to bed, and now I'm plotting out my route to Leeds. In the morning Clara and I pick up a rental car and head north to the town my Mom was born and raised in. Stay tuned for more updates on our adventure!
