Fun with Friends

We met our friends the Robinsons (English family living in Duesseldorf) out for dinner in London last night. Once again, Saturday night in London is always a challenge. Our bus ride took about 30 minutes longer than it usually does because of the HUGE volume of traffic--both car and people. While they were waiting for us, the Robinsons found a restaurant that would seat 8 of us on a Saturday night. But the table was ready about 45 minutes after the restaurant said it would be. By this time all the girls were toast and we let them all have Coke with dinner just so they wouldn't fall asleep. Everyone rallied and we had a really good time at dinner.

Today, Maddie and I met up with the Robinsons late afternoon at Oxford Circus and we brought the three girls home to spend the night with us. After a gourmet meal of chicken nuggets, mashed potatoes and green beans and some quality bunny petting time, they have settled in for a movie. We'll see what getting them all to sleep tonight is like.


This is the big news in London today.
