Girls' Cultural Trip

As mentioned earlier, H-M and Tiina went on a cultural trip to London at the end of April. This was the second such trip, and by all accounts they had a good time.


The themes of the trip were museums, vegan food and theatre. One museum, one play and one vegetarian meal was planned for each day. They stayed in a bed-and-breakfast in Kensington, the Vicarage Hotel. The hotel was chosen mainly for its central location and the girls would use it again, although I suspect they might prefer something like The Dorchester or Claridge's. Those considering staying at the Vicarage Hotel be warned, the stairs are very narrow and very steep, so don't bring heavy suitcases.


Unfortunately, there seem to be very few photos of the trip, so evidence of the truth of what went on is rather limited.

The travellers met Sarah and Uncle Stephen for an evening out at the show, 'One Man, Two Guvnors'. Sarah and Stephen are soon leaving London and moving back up North, to the Harrogate area.

Not snow, but petals!
