A quite typical London sight |
|
|
We did lots of things as if we had never been to London before...
I went to visit Seta and Sercho for a week. As usual
they treated me like the Queen herself and would not let me do anything.
Setig and Dickran have downsized to Cadogan Square. Here
is the street and the family
.
Sloane Square behind the house. Almost felt like a
Sloane Ranger...
Seta and I did lots of walking around and going to museums and
theaters. We had lots of fun.
I went to London with a heavy heart. Having lost our
Dickranig it was a difficult time for all of us especially Setig. But we tried
to make the best of it. We did tourist stuff in the city and tried to
enjoy every minute together. Here are some memories of our day on and off
Thames.
St. Catherine's Dock
... and last but not least a lonely phone booth.
