Greetings from London.

Yesterday being our 35th anniversary, and tomorrow 11/11 being my 75th birthday, we popped over from Massachusetts to take our pictures sauntering across Abbey Road. We had a brisk beautiful sunny day for it.

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

my tall thin bearded husband took healthy strides across and channeled John in his heart.

Happy birthday and anniversary...

I see they've erected a huge Ferris wheel since I was there in '86.

I don't think we will ride (it might not be open). So much to see, every day, before my feet say they're done! 🙂

We did not know this; I was choosing a "check-in" place for a picture and it came up as a choice. We will walk by there tonight and think good thoughts.
