Mom and Dad's Visit



My mom and dad came to London - for a long weekend visit . Our plan was to experience London during the holidays and get out of the city with a visit to somewhere else in England.

We started the their visit, with a trip down the Thames on a river cruise. Passing under London Bridge, Tower Bridge, and seeing Parliament and the London Eye from a river view was amazing. We had a great Italian dinner at La Famiglia, (where the Chelsea team, and other London celebs are known to go.)

The next day we rented a private car - and had a 4 hour tour of London. I could not believe the history and facts that this guy knew - 4 hours of non-stop dialogue - it was an immense amount of knowledge. Followed by an dinner of our favorite Indian food at Nor Jahaan.

We headed that weekend to Rye- which supposedly had the most quaint bed-and-breakfast in England. It was a sweet, small, cobblestone street village. We ate well - got some good sleep - had a true English Cream Tea, and relaxed.


It was great to see the stamp in my Dad's passport.
