Day 5 - A lovely day in West Wickham!

We have NO jet lag because of the day flight.  After a nice breakfast, Mark and I were dropped off in West Wickham High Street as Chris and Ken had other things to do.  We had fun shopping for all our 'beauty' supplies in Boots as we packed with none - so razor, shaving cream, conditioner, lotions and potions.  Afterwards, we walked to the house of Andrea and Peter, who kindly put us up for Katrina's wedding in 2006.  Peter is away doing a security job in Lancaster, but we had a lovely afternoon tea with Andrea.  She has put it in our head about walking along the Thames Path when we board the canal boat.  She caught us up on her family telling us about the life of her daughter on the Isle of Mann; the difficulties of coming and going sound similar to the difficulties of going and coming from Nantucket.

Later, we had a wonderful family dinner all made by Christine.  Walshie brought over 18 month old Lewis for us to meet.  Katrina came over later as she had a long day at school.  Annie brought over 3 1/2 year old Ewan also for us to meet and Will also came along after he was done with work.  It was a lot of fun to meet the children who played very happily.  Katrina came back after Lewis went to bed.
