Hi Noah & Ava (Mom and Dad too!)!
Greetings from London. I flew on the airplane for 7 hours, then took a train for another hour and finally arrived at the house where I'm staying. The cool part about the train was that sometimes it traveled underground and sometimes on top. I liked being above ground better because I could see all the houses. Most of them had little vegetable and flower gardens in the back.
The house where I'm staying has a very pretty backyard too with lots of flowers. There are Spring flowers called daffodils growing all over here. They're bright yellow and smell very nice.
I went for a walk by the Thames River, which goes all through London. It was very windy but had lots of pretty trees and more yellow flowers called "forsythia". I had lunch at a place called a "pub". I found out that pub is a short name for "public house". A public house is a place where people from the neighborhood, who didn't have big houses, could come to eat and drink and entertain friends. It was very cozy and had good food.
It's time for me to go now. I'll write more tomorrow.
Love.....Grandma
