Road Trip.......

We've done it. Crossed the threshold of being able to "hang out" at home, and Mike rented a car today. We decided to make it an adventure, and had no plans or ideas, just head in a direction and drive. We found it was cheaper to rent from Heathrow, so we did. Packed a couple bags and tubed out to get the car.

Then headed to Kent. We're spending the night at a little chain hotel in Kingsgate, just east of Margate. Mike is doing fine with driving on the "other side" of the road. It helps that the car is a compact.

I should mention that I got to spend some part of my birthday at Harrods. Wasn't tempted to buy anything. But we did have coffee and a birthday pastry at a cafe inside.

Very nice.
Yesterday, we did the first floor of the V&A, also finding a great cafe inside.
Looks like this will be an eating tour of England.
