Almost gone

Tomorrow we leave for the UK. It will actually be sometime the day after tomorrow that we get there from Kansas City. We will be approaching from the direction opposite that taken by Caesar, which will hopefully bring us better luck. Although, I imagine Caesar found a more favorable exchange rate.

From Plutarch's "The Life of Julius Caesar" 23.3 regarding Britain:

The island was of incredible magnitude, and furnished much matter of dispute to multitudes of writers, some of whom averred that its name and story had been fabricated, since it never had existed and did not then exist,,,

No problem there. My wife has been on the phone in the past few days with people who attest to actually be in Britain, so I am confident we will find it just where it is reputed to be.
