New York, Part II- Walking Around, Central Park and more






I started  my journey to NY on Virgin America, what a nice airline it is...





A view of NY






My son picked me up at the airport in his 1978 restored Ford. It is so cool. 
What a treat!
Here we are getting out of the car to go grab something to eat.





My daughter & I took Mr. Wilson (LA dog, now NYC dog) to Central Park for a walk.
Mr. Wilson lives right across the street from the park.
Here he is looking at the zoo (no dogs allowed).
 Sorry, Mr. Wilson!





A beautiful view of the skyline.





A dogwood in bloom in Central Park.
Spring has sprung.





Everyone was at the park that day.





Even the ducks were having a good time.







Central Park is so beautiful. 






Hotel Cassa breakfast -Yummy!
Hotel Cassa was home - A big thank you to Troy Pade, the general manager.





 Fifth Ave, lots of people walking
Louie Vuitton and many more.





Apple store.





Walking around NY





This is the Camper shop.
I thought the windows - wicker woven with chairs & tables - was unique!





Inside they had wicker also...
They are getting ready for summer.





Times Square, a land mark!
Had to take this shot.













St. Patrick's Cathedral  is under construction but still open.





Wythe Hotel in Brooklyn





Night time in  NY from my cab.





Walking around in NY is so exciting!







 

So I bid farewell to New York..Amid some tears I confess...
I had such a grand time.
Thank you to my son & daughter. 

 I really saw lots + had a wonderful time.



Love,


Peggy

A Friend / Client's Home In London





Many of you have asked me to show what has happened in London.
So here goes-






This is the front door of my client /friend's home.
It is lovely!






This flower was blooming by the house.






This is the entrance hall - a glimpse of the front door, to the left is the front door
Had mirror, lamps installed & a radiator cover built.
Storage on one side, radiator on the other.






This was for a party in the dining room. 






This is the living room.






The glow from the lights, just marvelous.






This is the mantel over the fireplace in the living room.






A beautiful sofa with yummy pillows we got for the party.






This was my room.
It is called the Green Room.






This picture is from a makeup table
in client's room.






This is called the Red Room!
There are 2 bedrooms and a owners suite upstairs.

Hope you enjoyed the tour of my friend/client's home in London.
Now you have an idea, dear readers, of what I was up to in the UK.




Love,



Peggy

London Walking





Here are some photos I took walking around in London.
I had such a wonderful time






I can't remember the name of the street???
I know I was there!






Those buses are something to be hold!






I am pretty sure I was in Shanghai Tang.






Janet said the streets looked like a cleaner version of New York.






It has been raining when this was taken.






This was along the street where my client lives.






This was right before a big downpour.






This tree was blooming in all its glory.






I had to take a picture of these two guys talking.






Loved all the flags flying.






Looks like a very posh street.






 The macarons are soooo good here.






This is the Royal Academy - I do remember that!






Department store, under construction.






It is so charming in London.






I had to take a picture of this wicker bike.
I was quite taken with it.
 The entire thing is wicker!!!!!






An apartment house!






 A typical street in London.
Look at all the trees blooming + the flowers. 

I had a glorious time.
Wish you all could have been there with me, dear readers.



Love,




Peggy
