10th Anniversary Trip to London













Kim and I just returned from spending a week in London (Feb. 27-March 5) to celebrate our 10th anniversary. We had such a wonderful time seeing the sights, and just being together. The only downside to the trip is that we arrived on Sunday, but our luggage didn't arrive until late Wednesday night. Nonetheless, we purchased a few essentials and enjoyed every minute we were there. We were total tourists! Did the doubledecker hop on, hop off bus tour, Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, National Portrait Gallery, National Gallery, Big Ben, Tower Bridge and London Bridge, Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Harrods, and saw three shows at the West End. We are huge fans of the Tube system which makes it so easy to get anywhere. We overdosed on British chocolate, paid 14 pounds for a movie, and Kim loved the fish and chips. Luke, Ally and Izzie also took us to lunch one afternoon and Ally and Lizzie went souvenir shopping with us. It's good to be home. We sure missed the boys but knew they were being very spoiled by their Aunt Jolynn.
