Trip 12: Grandma Visits London for Christmas!

We were fortunate enough to have Grandma come to visit for Christmas!  Yesterday was her first trip to London.  Although it rained, we saw the Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace, Oxford Street, Covent Garden, and severals trains in-between.


Both the train rides were a little interesting:
On the way to London, we had the entire train car to ourselves.
On the way home, our train hit a tree.  It broke a window, delayed us an hour, and we had to get a new train at the next stop.  I suppose it could have been a lot worse!

The next few days will be focused on Christmas cookies, our traditional Christmas roast cooked by Grandma, and I'm sure a few trips into town.
