Jour 10, 7 mai

 Today was a departure and arrival day. Lyne was the first to leave at 10am this morning. We were all emotional to see her go and she felt the same way about leaving us in London.  It was a pleasure to share this week in London with Lyne.

Catherine and I went to the grocery store and waited for Nicole, Carole and Dominique to arrive.

In the meantime, the guy who was in charge of changing the sheets arrived. For a while we were all in the house together. Catherine left at 2 p.m. She was a little nervous about flying alone, but she was also very happy to finally see her new home.

This morning we noticed that there was water infiltration in the bathroom on the first floor. I informed the agency and they sent a man to take care of it. I've never seen a plumber with a jacket before! He had a very classic look for the work he did. I am sorry I didn't took a picture of him.  In any case, the rest of this water leak story is to be continued. Stay tuned!

As always, we did the royal tour. On the way we entered Partridge's, where I saw a box of tea that I will have to go back and buy.

My travel companions were very tired and had difficulty keeping their eyes open on the bus back.

But they had enough courage to go to a restaurant for dinner. We went to Pizza Express on Kings Road, a 5 minute walk from our house.

We got back just before 7pm and they went to bed the second we got there.  

So this quiet day was a day of 12979 steps.

En veston! Eh bien, c’est représentatif de Londres! Il est tout à fait indiqué que l’émotion était dans l’air. Un séjour rempli visites, de partages, bons repas et repos! Je retiens la super gang, Catherine et André, joyeux co voyageurs d’Edinburgh et Londres. Manon, formidable organisatrice, qui a une mémoire phénoménale, rien de moins! Merciiiiiii
