Night and Day

 Overnight to London

Detroit last night: waiting for the overnight flight to take us to London.
Despite having expectations for a pleasant flight, our seats were uncomfortable and the food was icky.

Heading out of Heathrow Airport by taxi to our hotel in London.
If blogger and web access will allow me to do it, I’ll be posting more as our trip continues.

The National Gallery, London


This is a huge museum, and every painting in it is a masterpiece! 
Although we flew all night in challenging conditions, we slept a bit this morning,
and then spent a few hours seeing the wonderful works of art. I’m just showing a few.


Portrait of Cezanne by Camille Pissarro. (1874)

Self Portrait as Saint Catherine of Alexandria by Artemisia Gentileschi (1615-17)

The Este Diptych by Ercole de’ Roberti (about 1490)
You can see another museum goer behind the case where this is displayed.
