Visitors to Londontown

Last week we had such a fun time! I've been wanting to write about it all, but I've just been too busy running everywhere. So now it's catch-up time. My cousins, Leslie and Stephen, came for a visit, along with their friend Patti. It was sooo fun to have them here with us, and to get all the latest details from their lives. It made me feel a little less homesick, which is always a good thing.

While they were here, we took them to some of our favorite places, including Camden Market. It was a hit!! They took to the market more readily than any of our other guests ever have... bought bracelets, handbags, looked at jewelry, coats and shirts, and of course, indulged in good market foods. Here's a picture of some handbags we didn't buy...


Brian suggested a walk along the canal, which turned out to be a nice quiet stroll after the busy market. Leslie and I found it amusing that they had named one of the canal-facing buildings the "Pirates Close." It was a cool building, though I'm not sure what the pirate thing is about.

Sammie enjoyed all the adventures from her stroller... little cutie.
While Les, Stephen and Patti were touring downtown in the evening, Brian, Sam and I took a trip to visit a nice cathedral I'd been wanting to see for awhile now. It has a very cool tower that I've always wanted to climb, but it had just closed when we arrived. I include it because it was a fun little touristy thing for us.
