A day of rest.

Jan 29

This was a day of welcome rest for John. He just hung out and chilled with Valerie and talked of old times. Meanwhile I did some work on the blog: uploading videos and writing about the day before. No end to the work I have to do!

It was a wonderful day because John realized just how tired he had become. He sat on the couch and watched some nature television including a program on how they take care of the animals in the Metro Toronto Zoo. During the program, John felt soo comfortable and relaxxxx__zzzzzz.

He woke up long after the program had gone off. That was how relaxed he was.

Alan and Jack had gone off to work but when they came home, it was time to get ready for dinner out! Alan wanted to treat everyone to a dinner at an Indian restaurant in Herne Bay. However, Jack had plans with Sam so it was Alan, Sandra, Amy, Val, and John who got in the car to go.

They drove in and it was amazingly good. John had a couple of dishes that he cannot remember, ate someone else's rice by accident, and enjoyed a local beer. However, it wasn't just the food but the company that made the evening so special. Alan has a gift for telling jokes and recounting stories while Sandra can keep up line by line. It can make for hilaious repartee. John asked mt to underline that it was a very fun and memorable evening.

When they got home, John was ready to crash again.

  1. Hey TRB,

    Who wouldn't be tired with all that around the world travelling!! Enjoy the much needed rest so you and John can catch up with all the family. I am sure you will be surprised at the things that have and have not changed in that eciting city of London. If you get over to Coronation street say hi to Tony Gordon, Noris, Ken and Deidre for me!!
