Last night, we drove to Greenwich, Connecticut, staying in a very nice Hyatt hotel:

Today we drove into New York and made our way to the Louis Armstrong Stadium, to watch a day of US OpenTennis; the weather was fabulous, and we watched a number of tennis matches – at least till we got too hot! I tried many times to take some action shots – but it is really hard …

Connecticut – Mystic & Casinos!

Posted on August 8, 2004February 19, 2017 by Ian C.

Just back from a weekend in Connecticut; we drove down Friday and stayed in a spectacular inn near Mystic and the Foxwoods casino:

We toured “Old Mystic Village” (which is really just a glorified outdoor shopping mall), then we headed into Mystic proper, and I spent some time watching the lift bridge operating:

Nearby are two casinos, Foxwoods & Mohegan Sun; both are impressive to look at from outside; our trip was primarily so that Margaret could watch a boxing match at Foxwoods!

England – Margarets parents 50th wedding anniversary

Posted on March 3, 2004February 19, 2017 by Ian C.

Back late last night from a trip to England to join in with the celebrations of Margarets parents 50th wedding anniversary! The trip was fun; although we were only away a week, as well as seeing all Margarets family we visited my grandparents and saw my Dad (went with him to visit John Cooper Works too!).
