🌱. What do you all do with Boston Ferns at the end of season when they’re really creating the “haunted house” (dying) vibe? Last year, I was able to save one and we made it through the winter! At one point this summer, it flourished. I’ll bring IT back inside. The others look too far gone.

One of the best parts of our England tour is: we didn’t know the news! It was divine….to simply be unaware.

We are leaving our London hotel in a few minutes to drive to the Cotswolds! One of the best parts of London has absolutely been the concierge staff! They are hilarious! Brilliant dry sense of humor that we love! I would always recommend this hotel!!

Now, we’re moving to the Cotswolds for the rest of the vacation. We will miss BrickLane Market & Portobello Market. London is not like Paris. I can’t even explain the feeling here. It’s nice that everyone speaks English. it feels like we don’t connect but humor. London doesn’t feel like our place.

It’s the kind of place where you can’t turn a single lamp on. I just want to turn on my bedside lamp. Now. For one minute

Any suggestions for boutique hotels? This $9 coffee is too much for me. I’m serious!! I don’t even know the difference btwn Starbucks and office coffee. Also, I’m very “value conscious.”

London may not be the place for me—even though it’s my language. It feels so strict —though, we DO have same sense of humor!! I’m glad to explore here—but, still feel
Paris was perfect!!

Then, we went to Oxford where I was desperate to tour abything Bodlien, but tkts sold out. 🤦♀️I wanted to go into the Boldlien gift shop—but our encyclopedic-minded guide skipped it and told us everything abt every college. I realize now, claim my time/ interests! Hope to return and look @ gardens.

Today! (Guided tour—strongly discouraged)—We visited the Cotswolds, specifically—Burford. It’s beautiful & I wanted to explore & lingerhave a pint and people-watch. get magnets and little tchotchkes for friends @ home. But that wasn’t possible. We hustled along. I learned a lot abt churches. 🤦♀️

Oh Jesus. I could’ve worn my Nashville clothes if I’d simply taken the time to lean the difference btwn celcius and Fahrenheit. Dammit. I have abt eleventy hundred hot weather things I could’ve worn. If considered hotel appropriate. Dammit. Off to go to find shorts

Also, tomorrow, we go to Cotswolds and Oxford! So excited! And I planned a special birthday surprises for my husband on his birthday! It involves a tour of all the sites in a classic mini-cooper! (Psst-don’t tell him!). We are little statute peoples! So, this is perfect!
