Sunday May 4th we were lucky enough to take the boys to London for 4 days. They loved being able to read the signs in English and understand everything everybody was saying. JD and I noticed as well how relaxed we were because even in a city we are not familiar with we knew that if we needed help or directions all we had to do was ask. A simple pleasure I am sure most people take for granted.
We also enjoyed the Krispie Cream doughnuts that were right next to our hotel!
Our favorite part of this trip would have to be our visit to Greenwhich. It was a beautiful city only an hour train ride outside London. We visited the Maritime museum and the Royal observatory. The boys learned what the prime meridian was and were able to stand over it. (Similar to going to the four corners in the U.S.)
We also went to see Wicked, if you haven't sen it you must! I loved it! Talen even quotes it now!
It was a nice getaway, but now I am ready for our next big trip, Mesa Arizona! It has been almost a year, and we are ready to see our family and friends!
