A Nice Day for a Cup of Tea


Today we woke up right around 11am. Both of us slept nearly the whole night, we were out. Around 12 we went and had lunch at a restaurant called "The Harvester". Chris had scampi (think fish nuggets instead of chicken nuggets) and chips (fries), and I had a bacon burger with chips. The bacon was a little different than what we're used to in the US. It was called a bacon steak. The closest thing I could compare it to was ham. After that, we headed into Putney to visit Granny (Mr. Dodds' Mom) for a cup of tea, and then tea. I had my cup of tea, then for tea we had half sandwiches with a choice of smoked salmon or swiss cheese. After that we topped our stomachs off with coffee cake. Chris and I also got a chance to walk down a couple blocks near his grandmothers flat (apartment). The street we were on comes out of London, and naturally, a couple nice cars. The weather was perfect, middle to low 70's and sunny. We had one small shower pass by, but it only lasted about 30 minutes or so. After a long chat with the grandmothers, we headed back to Nanny's (Mrs. Dodds mom). Great day so far, tomorrow we plan to hang out with Chris' friend Jon and see where that takes us. Here are some pictures to fill you guys in on the atmosphere (you can click them to make them bigger):
