Buckingham Palace

Here is a picture from when we went to Buckingham Palace the other day. Now I know that not one of us is in this photo but I am sure you can use your imagination. We haven't been gone so long that you forgot what we look like, right???

Yesterday

First of all, I posted about 6 pictures yesterday and for some reason they aren't showing up.
Yesterday we took a long walk around Hyde Park. It is beautiful!!! The kids copied a man who was putting seeds in his hand and little birds would land and take it right out of his hand. We didn't have seeds but they did have leftover bread from feeding the ducks. Aedan, Hannah, and Avery Rose got birds to land on them. They also, along with me, feed the ducks right from our hands. For lunch we ate at Hard Rock Cafe. That was very fun! We also took a tour of the vault downstairs. We then took the tube to the British Museum and walked around there for a while. We then went and had Gelato for dinner then back to our apartment.
Today we are off to Stonehenge. I am very excited!!

Our day today...

This morning we took the Underground to get the boat that took us to Greenwich. Being at 0 longitude was very facinating!
We had lunch at a great Italian restaurant!
After lunch we visited the Maritime museum.
Aedan and I took a little nap on the boat on our way back.
Aedan and I were exhausted so we came home and Bob and the other kids went on to Covent Gardens.
That is all for now!

I almost forgot to tell you!

I have to share with you all that last night I LITERALLY fell asleep in the bathtub!!! I was even dreaming before my head tipped backwards and woke me up! That can't be good!
In this apartment that we are staying at there are 2 bath tubs and only one shower. The one shower is downstairs in Tim's room so I opted to use the bathtub connected to our bedroom. I was so tired and the water was nice and warm so I totally dozed off!!
That was a first for me!

First full day in London

Here is what we did today:
Walk to Buckingham Palace.
Saw Big Ben.
Rode on the London Eye. http://www.londoneye.com/
Visited the London Aquarium.
Walked inside the Westminster Abbey.
Took the Underground to Piccidilly.
Ate at Rainforest Cafe.

We are all ready to go to bed but it is only 6:35 p.m.!! So, I am trying to keep everyone up for a little while at least.

That is all for now.

We made it!

Our flight took off on time and it was pretty much uneventful which is what I had been praying for. There were little episodes of bad turbulence and the kids didn't sleep a lot but other than that it was great!
We just came home from Harrod's and dinner. Tomorrow we are going to the London Eye.
