tvordljThere was a bake sale in one of the boardrooms today. The usual suspects, cookies, chocolate cake, slices of loaf etc. But they also had a pumpkin cake with cream cheese icing and walnuts on top. Nom nom!!! I bought a piece to have after lunch with my tea. :)
Three weeks from today i'll be on UK-terra firma!!! W00t! I'm determined not to overdo it when we go to Amsterdam and Belgium like i did with Paris. I don't want to suffer with blisters and sore feet like i did there. Poorgramie_dee said he though he was going to have to prop me up in the Louvre and leave me there as one of the exhibitions. I pretty much hit the meltdown point that evening and in retrospect we did do too much that day. Walking all over Montmartre, Dali museum, walking some more, and then the Louvre. We didn't see a lot of that! I did find the energy to go on the night Seine cruise because we only had to sit down so it was restful. Looking back we should have not bothered with the Louvre and just did the cruise. So this time around, i'm going to be less ambitious and if we only see a couple of sights, that's fine. We can always go back. We do have a few priorities - we want to do a canal cruise and we want to see the Masters in the Rijkesmuseum. Those are definites. I'd like to see the floating flower market too. Everything else we fit in as we can. Really looking forward to the Henry VIII exhibit in the British Library too and seeing some of you at the tentative picnic in the park (
