I have been so busy over the past 10
days. The much awaited visit from Mom and Dad finally came!
They arrived on Fridday September 11th. That first day I had off
of work so I picked them up at their hotel and we went over to the
village of Greenwich. They were both exhausted, but the weather
was good so we just kept moving. We saw the royal observatory
(complete with the prime meridian!) and the National Maritime Museum,
had a light lunch and they went back to the hotel for naps and I went
back home also for a quick nap. We met up again for dinner at
this beautiful little Thai restaurant right down the street from their
hotel. Saturday we went to the British Museum and to the show the Producers
Sunday Hampton Court Palace Monday I worked Tuesday - St. Paul's Cathedral Wednesday Thursday met up with Dean and then went to Brighton Friday

And yet more visitors coming your way
Hey there, Pinkster! Read your folks' email after returning from their visit with you...sounds like you had a great time.
Want to let you know that friends of ours from Indy are heading to London on 10/4 and will be staying at Waldorf on Fleet St. for a week. Phil & Shandon Whistler and 11 yo daughter Mary. Shandon owns upscale linen shop next door to Mundy Fine Art. She and Mary are some of my favorite people, absolutely delightful!!! Phil has business and so they will be "girls night out" for 3 nights and would love to spend time with you. I will give them your phone number and ask them to contact you when they arrive if that sounds like something you'd like to do. You'd have a blast with Shandon and Mary, they have personality-plus. I have also appropriately bragged to them about you!!!
On another note, CW and Becky are in France painting for two months. Are currently in Paris, heading to Honfleur 9/28-30, then to a Chateau about 2 1/2 hrs SW of Paris from 10/3-31, where CW will be mentoring other artists. Dianne, their gallery director, is spending 2 wks with them now. Her first trip abroad, so excited for her. If you'd like to attempt to connect with them, here are numbers: 9/22-27 - Paris - Hotel Du Quai Voltaire, tel 011 33 1 4261 5091 9/28-30 - Honfleur - Hotel Les Maisons De Lea, tel 011 33 2 3114 4949 10/3-31 - Chateau du Soudun CW tel - 011 33 67 7765 582 Chateau tel 011 33 2 5437 1944 Can also email Becky at <rebecca@cwmundy.com> You will receive a message back stating that she is away from the gallery, however, she is reading her mail and will respond.
Heard you connected with May/George...they love you! George said he had a great discussion with you.
