much improved

Yes, the weekend did look up from there. We got to London Thursday night, and the only problem from there on was trying to cram 3.5 days of sightseeing into 2.5 days. Of course, being us, if we’d had the extra day we’d probably have been trying to cram 4.5 days of stuff into 3.5 days, so we’d be even more tired. Seriously, Friday morning to Sunday afternoon: the Painted Room and Royal Chapel at Greenwich, the Queen’s House ditto, the Royal Observatory, the National Marine Museum, a boat ride to Greenwich and back, The Tempest at the Novello Theatre, Kensington Palace, the V&A, the Science Museum (not all of either museum, obviously), Harrod’s, the British Library, a very cool little restaurant called Konstam, and a gathering of people from my main discussion list.
More detail later. Bedtime now.
