July 3: Another country for Anya

Anya has now visited 10 countries! We only count countries if we get out of the airport, so there would be 1 more if we counted airports. And Anya is so excited to check out London.

We made it on the train to Paddington Station, despite a lack of information and signage.

Then, Anya deciphered the Tube (subway) map and heroically got us to our destination. I had a map on my phone that got us to our Air B & B house rental. We are in a nice neighborhood which is out of the beaten path, so not so noisy, but close enough to the Tube stop and a mall.

We went out for dinner after the demands of travel. I saw an interesting booth.

Fortunately, our host had an offer for us. He could provide us with a SIM card with unlimited data, 3000 texts, and more phone calls than what would be needed for 30 days all for only 15 pounds. (So why is this so expensive in the USA?)

After dinner, Scott and I walked to get some groceries, which made us curious over several items that were new to us.

Hmm, what does this taste like?

I’m tired, but Anya is too excited about being here in London. She told me she isn’t going to leave–ever.

We’ll, Anya, good luck with that.

With blessings,

Beth
