Day Eight at Kate and Robert's House
Rest Day
05.10.2012
I wrote the other day that they don't have traffic lights here in England. WRONG! They have lots of traffic lights in the cities, and they show an amber light between green and red and also between red and green so you can get revved up to go!
This morning we did some more research into renting a car for the last leg of our stay in England, after we come back from Italy. It came down to a choice between a Peugeot and a Toyota Yaris. The Peugeot was less expensive and the size was roughly the same so we phoned and reserved one for the 17th of Oct. I also did 3 loads of laundry here at Kate's. Kate drove us to the High Street and we bought some groceries and a new set of suspenders for Neil. The ones he had brought had all of a sudden lost their elasticity. It took us approx. 25 min. to walk home. I have also been working at figuring out why I can't get this blog program to put my photos into my blog. I found out today that the reason it isn't working is that I'm trying to perform this function from my iPad. It doesn't work to use an iPad. There is another program that you can use but I downloaded it and couldn't get it to work for me yet. A steep learning curve, this!
