richmond








Today might have been my favorite London day yet. My dear friend Jeannie's sister, Sophie and her fiance Harvey live here in London and invited us out to visit them in their town, Richmond, which is right at the end of the Tube line. What a treat it was!! Sophie and Harvey were the best hosts and gave us a grand tour of one of the most beautiful towns ever. We walked through the shops of Richmond and then over to the Thames and strolled along the river (stopping, of course, for ice cream with flake) until we got to this huge cow field. We then hiked up a giant hill, where we had a beer and took in an unbelievable view. The day ended with a little tour of their house and neighborhood and a stop in at a playground. The girls were WIPED out when we got "home" (we were too!). Thank you Sophie and Harvey!!
