London - A few last pictures


Our little family enjoyed an evening walk along the river "Thames" (Pronounced 'tems')

London Bridge:




London is an EXPERIENCE with FOOD :


This whole foods cafe became my favorite


I'm beginning to understand why I saw
very few individuals with weight problems - the food is so good in London! It's delicious AND healthy - what an idea, eh?

A sushi restaurant where you get your food off a conveyor belt!!! So fun




This is a picture of the Entrance to Duane's Work Place - it was a beautiful building! About a 5 minute walk from our hotel, Rella and I came to visit the office on our last day.

There is history everywhere in this city!


The Obelisk inscription:

The Obelisk quarried at Syene was erected at Heliopolis by the Pharaoh Thothmes III about 1500 B.C.

At the Heathrow Airport before our 9-hour flight back to Chicago - Rella enjoyed this life size teddy bear dressed as a train conductor.


Rella doing last minute souvenir shopping at the airport.
She was a champ on the flight home (even though it was VERY bumpy coming into Chicago)

Kelty, this is fabulous-what fun memories. Also, high five for your creativity with Rella and handling the time change. I hate to admit it, but our creativity (or rather lack of) when traveling internationally with our 9 month old included just one thing: infant benadryl!

I love those luscious shots of you and Duane in front of the London bridge at night. Maybe you could frame them?

You WERE a trooper to manage that entire trip with little Rella. My cousin was totally amazed that you were able to do that.

Good work, all around!

Love, Mom
