Since getting back home after Easter, we've had Marie-Ange & Frederic visit us from France. It was great to see them and show them some of London. I think Marie-Ange was an English woman in her former life as her penchant for Liberty fabrics, scones and lemon curd betray her French and Spanish heritage.
The following weekend was trip to Stoke-on-Trent to the "potteries" for some real factory outlet shopping with my Canadian gal-pals.
Last weekend was a Medieval themed night in London with the Canadian contingent. We're off to WWII battle sites in Normandy this weekend. And then there is the regular ballet, Brownies, swimming etc stuff. Oh, and taxes. We got those done.
Today, Adrian is having lunch with His Royal Highness, Prince Charles! Who would have imagined that he'd be invited to St. James Palace for a reception with the future King of Britain! He's quite blasé about the whole thing. I hope there are at least some pictures to commemorate this!
Here are a few Tuscany teaser pictures until I can get a chance to post a better story.
