I don't remember very much of England, it was a whirlwind
tour (one week), but we enjoyed it anyway. It was the first time Dad had ever
been to England, and my second time. (Of course, that hardly counted since I was
a small child when I went the first time!) The memories I do have of our trip
are very special to me.
Dad always had two weeks off during the summer and we would always go to the
Netherlands for one week and to another place (whether it was another country or
France) for the second one. One summer we went to Germany, but Dad was actually
on a business trip, so we didn't get to do much "touristing." I think
the Netherlands was my favorite country to visit, but Paris was like home to me
and to Dad. (I couldn't find any pictures of Dad from the Netherlands or Greece
~ where he lived for one year.) After his company sent him back to Andover,
Massachusetts, he tried very hard to get back overseas. He never did. . . .
