Memories of London

I bought a 5.5 oz. container of ice cream today. (Why only 5.5 oz, you ask.) Because I will eat whatever I buy--the same day I buy it and......
However, I just popped the lid off the container and inside the lid was a tiny plastic spoon. Seeing this immediately took me back to every theater we went to in London. All the people sitting at intermission eating their little cups of ice cream with their little cardboard spoons. All except Kristen, that is, who was drinking champagne from a plastic cup provided by the kind lady who stood by the vendor's cart at the front of the theater. I would love so much to make that same trip again. Same hotel, same fellow travelers, same walks, same theaters, same midnight raids on the hotel kitchen. Same non stop flights too. It was such a cool vacation.

I recommend that, when you go next time, you see "Billy Elliot." I hear it is wonderful. It's won awards and everything.

Perhaps if the trip is repeated we will listen to you.

Once upon a time...
