Out Of Hospital In Hospital Food

I decided to do dinner after my big outing riding the bus around London.  There was a pub just around the corner from The London Clinic, so I stopped by there for a Sunday roast.  It was tasty.

Both Flowers Done

Yay, both flowers are done!  Now on to the leaves.

From Workers to Ferraris

Still on the same bus ride while in hospital.  I got to see birds on this worker statue on the back side of the Tower of London.  They wanted to balance his hammer.  We wound past Westminster (again) and through Grosvenor.  There, one of the hotels had a bunch of exotic cars owned by guests parked on its side.

On To The Fourth

Working on the fourth motif now.  I am getting close to finishing this!

More In Hospital Touring

The bus took me past St. Paul's Cathedral on on past the place that was the center of the great fire of 1666.  Then more bridges, including London Bridge.

Slowly Working Down

Welp I am still working on this wide middle bit; it's got a lot of confetti and partial stitches in it, but I'm pleased with the results so far.  The tendrils on the dragon's head are also in the process of being backstitched - slow going there too.  I think this may be my daily project for the rest of the month so I can feel like I'm truly making progress.

In And Out Of The Hospital

The London Clinic is located across from the Royal Academy of Music by Regent's Park and between Harley and Marleybone High Streets.  The people there believe in letting patients out into the sunshine and fresh air as much as possible, so on my second full day there, I was let out to explore.  I walked a LOT and saw a nice Lamborghini and some other expensive cars.  Then I got on a sightseeing bus and went all around London.  Pretty good way to spend a day in the hospital, no?
