Summary
Reads: This is my first English summer since 1966-- I'd forgotten the peculiar mixture of pale sun, soft rain, sudden cool breezes, really very pleasant. We seem to be doing a great deal of walking up and down the King's Rd. on our way to and from Sloane Sq. tube station. Found two nice dirt food places on King's Rd. London as full of tourists as if it were Ancient Rome; how different from N.Y. Love Ruth.
