We Made It!
I thouht I had posted a blog last night but I guess it didn't post.... Anyway, we made it to London without any problems, our flight from JFK was delayed by two hours but they rebooked most people on an earlier flight so our flight was was not even close to full. It was nice. Yesterday we walked around quite a bit, crossed the Tower Bridge, explored the city near the Thames River, it's exquisite! Its very old and very new, the streets are all cobblestone and many are extremely narrow. Today we went to Buckingham Palce to see the changing of the gaurd, we also went to Westminster Abbey (Very Old!), House of Parliment (saw Big Ben), and Trafalgar square. Our Hostel is right next to the Millenium Bridge and St. Pauls Cathedral. Tomorrow we're going to go to The Imperial War Museum and the Tower of London. We haven't been stressing ourselves out trying to see everything, our feet hurt already! We take the train to Dublin on Thursday.

Hi Kids,
So glad you had a good trip over the ocean. I envy you so much right now for all the beautiful sights you're seeing. The one thing I loved most about EU was the "ancient" feeling it had, so unlike the US. I love those narrow cobblestoned streets, many of which you can barely drive a car through. I thought I would automatically get an email every time you post something but I guess this isn't the case so everyone will just have to make sure they check the blog from time to time. Hey Sara, thanks for calling me at work today! That was a treat! Okay, I look forward to your next posting. Love ya both, MomA
Oh, I forgot....can't wait for photos! Make sure you take plenty of each other and have strangers take plenty of you both together.
Hi Sara & James! What fun it is to be a part of your trip. Sounds like your eyes have seen so much already. Isn't it great? Glad to hear you had a little extra room on the flight over. I don't suppose you'll be so lucky on the way home. I hope James can find
a decent sandwich soon. I don't think I'd like the egg either. How is the weather? I hope it it shines on you both all the way through. Have a wonderful time and remember you are fulfilling a dream that many people talk about but never take the time and effort
to realize. Bravo! Love, een
To my world traveling kids,
I know I have walked right by your hostel, I just didn't realize it was there. Stormie is doing great, she does to drink out of her bowl. Clipped her nails and she didn't seem to mind. Planting plants today. I wish I was going to the war museum with you, Jack has told me a lot about it.
We want to hear about everything, but don't become a slave to camera and blog. Enjoy yourselves!!! Be sure that we will want EVERY detail when you get back.
Love, MOMC
