Leaving France 🇫🇷
Another view from the back of the ferry.
Our boat ride was relatively uneventful. A little to hot in our lounge at times and the boat was a little too rocky at times as well. I missed trivia by 10 minutes, the dads would have won in a landslide. Eventually we would reach jolly old England. In the meantime…..
Cool dads
Cool dad making this trip great
Just a couple of photos that didn’t may the daily cut.
England
Get the gear on the bus. Fire the engine, Brian and let’s get this crew to London.
The plan was to get to London and go to mass at Westminster Cathedral. We made good time into London so we took in a couple of sight real quick.
The River Thames and Big Ben (Elizabeth Tower). This is a view from the bus.
Some wanted to change before church, some wanted to use the restroom and some wanted a beer 🍺.
Westminster Abbey
Big Ben with without the scaffolding. At least one thing is not under construction.
We found some London Pride
Westminster Cathedral
Above the doorway
Inside the Cathedral.
The mass was beautiful. I think everyone found it meaningful and renewing.
After the mass we took a group photo with Father Mike. He was funny and very welcoming and encouraged us to let Westminster Cathedral know ahead of time so he can arrange a tour of the cathedral. A wonderful Father and a surprising bonus to our day.
After mass we all went out for Indian food. The place was great but was a little overwhelmed by the 48 of us.
On the way next to the restaurant.
A little hydration in case the heat gets too much.
The feast. Nan, Chicken Curry, Prawns and more
The dads enjoyed the meal immensely.
After dinner it was back to the hotel for some much needed rest. The road is starting to take its toll on everyone to varying degrees but I know we have 1 more day in us.
