I'm at Heathrow Airport getting ready for the trip back to Washington. Things got a little better after my last post. Once I accepted the fact that this would be the most expensive vacation EVER, I found some peace.
We stayed an extra day in London. Attended a beautiful high Mass at Westminster Cathedral. It had a large choir (men and boys), a partial Latin liturgy, incense, the works. It was very nice.
Then, since a day without shopping is like a day without sunshine, we went shopping at Harrods. Massive store, packed with people, a woman singing opera to people on escalators and a huckster selling the Vegimax, who was the spitting image of Eric Idle.
Finally, we went to the British Museum. saw the Rosetta Stone, again, and an exhibit on the Books of the Dead from Egypt.
Maybe I'll post on everything that happened since Kilmainham Gaol, but I can't promise.
