London

 We had an amazing Spring break trip to London.  The day we arrived Emma and I went to the ballet Giselle.
 Everyone else went to Wicked.
 This is just in front of our flat for the week.

 St. Paul's Cathedral.


 The Globe Theater.
 Tower bridge


 Tower of London


 Lindenhall market.

 The next day was parliament,


 Buckingham Palace with the Canada gate,


 Trafalgar Square,

 The National Gallery,
 China town, and Picadilly Circus.


 Monday was the amazing Harry Potter studios,

 My Hufflepuffs.



 We love us some Butterbeer.







 The next day I showed everyone where I loved while studying abroad.
 We were allowed in to the front room.  It all seemed just the same.

 Kensington gardens and palace
 We fed a lot of birds on our trip.  This is in Hyde park.
 The Albert Memorial
 LDS chapel and visitors center.
 Neighbourhood in south Kensington

 Victoria and Albert Museum
 Harrods.

 On Wednesday we started at Covent gardens.
 Then went to Neil's Yard
 We fed more birds in St. James's Park.
 Then we went through Westminster Abbey

 and finished at School of Rock.


 Thursday we picked up the car and left town.  Kyle did a great job driving on the left side of the road.  I may have yelled at him a few times when he was actually doing it right because I was confused.
 We went to Windsor to tour the castle and the town.














 The next day was punting on the Cam in Cambridge and going to Evensong with the Kings College choir.












 Saturday was our last day with the car and we spent in exploring the Cotswolds.
 We started in Bourton on the Water.





 Then headed to Stow on the Wold.

 Third stop was Stanton


 And then Chipping Camden.
 We ended at Shakespeare's house in Stratford upon Avon

 Our last day we explored Regent's Park,


 Camden market

 and went on a narrow boat through little Italy.
This was a wonderful trip where we made memories to last a lifetime.
