May 1989

We finally made it to London-town. Had forgotten how exciting it is here. Erik is working here for 3 mo. so we are having a great reunion. Weather is gorgeous, sunny, 70’s. Seems as if we never left Europe – I love it. Won’t have time to go to the Hague but Erik and Kilena will go.

Love, Gunta

I have had a nice day here. Saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace and all the sites you have studied. Tim and Tom sent you greetings – I hope you are ready for exams.

Love, Bill

This superb building is that in which Parliament is housed. On the right, the Victoria Tower, and on the left, Big Ben.

Hi you lucky people. Having a wonderful time. Happy to get all the letters which were here on our arrival. London is sunny and warm. Shows, TV, etc. are very good. All these tall buildings are too much for local yokels like me. Will sail the night of the 23rd, can hardly wait – we need the rest. Will write more later.

Love and stuff, the Hewitts

By this time Paul and Norma will be getting away to Argentina. I’m stopping off a day here. Thinking about all that you did to help make our jaunt a success and want to thank you again.

I hope you are enjoying our vacation!

We took Enrique to school a few days ago. My heart kind of shrunk a bit. On Monday we leave for Italy after leaving Flavia and Lupe at their new school.

My regards to all the family “saludos carinosos” for you,

Nelson’s Column at Trafalgar Square

1986

Arrived OK – 2 hrs late but went straight to my room, a shower, and a nap. Slept about 2 hours on the flight plus 2 hours here so I am in good shape. Just had lunch – watercress soup and a sandwich and a walk. Will leave the hotel about 5:30 for the bus to Heathrow. Service on Northwest was very good.

See you, Love, Bill
