Barnes Pond
Continued long work hours to complete a couple of proposals – all done then off to Atlanta to see Sharon and Annelise for Parents Weekend . But flew east via London (don’t ask why) and had a long layover. First long haul trip on 787 – supposedly oxygen content higher and pressurization different but I didn’t notice. All I noticed was a screaming baby for most of the flight – but I have not yet converted to the old person who forgets how bad it is to have a kid on a plane with a problem so I was sympathetic. I was unsure of what to do with a long layover in London, but with the memory of screaming kid I had a nostalgic moment coming through baggage claim where almost exactly 16 years ago Sharon and I came through with a 4 year old, a 2 year old wearing ladies panty hose, and 27 pieces of checked luggage. So only choice for me was to go back and visit Barnes, our neighborhood in London. Literally, hasn’t changed (which is good). Even ran into a lady I recognized – she didn’t recognize me but did fortunately my wallet photos are so old that she remembered Alexandra – “that large rambunctious American girl – I am sure she is quite famous by now”. Pictures attached, but probably only Sharon, Alex, Annelise, and Melanie interested.
