England as a tourist

                      

I am finally getting my feet back on the ground here in Hawaii after a month away. I had a great 3 weeks in England, staying mainly in Cambridge, but hit the road to travel too. It was amazing to be back and really spend time with great friends. 

 
                      

I totally surprised my mum, and just turned up at her house at 8am. She was quite speechless. We had a great day in London, and I finally go to on on the London Eye, and we did West End theatre - always amazing.

                     

I was lucky to hit a great weather streak ... sunshine and blue skies all the way! Which all made my home land all look very beautiful.

                     
So I decided to act tourist and enjoy the sights and take lots of photos. Check out my pictures on the photos page. I was reminded just how beautiful and unique England is. The monuments and architecture of London. The classic beauty of the river and university in Cambridge. The beautiful green countryside of Cheshire. 

                     

It was great to see my family, friends and spend time with church too. Lots of great meals and life-story sharing. We dont feel any older, but the fact that there are more babies and they are getting older and taller means we must be older. It was a hectic time, but I loved it.

More photos to come from England of my wonderful friends, and stories and photos from Seattle.
