The Birthday Gal at the Swan
Today, January 19, the actual date for the Birthday Gal, we headed back to Billy's for another go at their fish and chips. We even had 2 Carlsberg beers to wash it down. The weather was quite good.
Tomorrow, we leave London for Harwich and see the Trapps off to Heathrow, that maze of turmoil.
We plan on taking a train from Liverpool Station and an hour + ride to our destination. Hopefully,
the crowds at the station won't be too challenging. This will be our first opportunity to venture on
Brit public transportation this trip.
Tower Hotel is our destination. It's an old fashioned hotel, built about 1895 and has an Italian
flavor. They have a restaurant and large gardens surrounding the building. There are also extensive
walking areas along the shore front. Since we are staying there for 6 days until embarkation, we
may do some kind of touring about the area.
Tonight we're having dinner at Barri's flat. Aubrey and Walter have been walking around the Chelsea
main streets. They have taken to London in a big way and seem comfortable in this milieu. Where
so many young folks, dressed in bright youthful fashion abound. They visited the Tower today as
a final goodbye to London.
Goodbye to all until we get to our next destination. They have WiFi there so I can keep you informed.
