A Day about the Town

We went to Borough Market, Shakespeare Globe, Tate Modern, and Beare's Violin shop. That's about all I have time to say about them now, so I'll let the pictures do the talking!

Borough Market

We walked by St. Pauls. "Feed the Birds"

We walked over London Bridge

This is for Whitney and Alicia

Queen Style

Fun day today indeed. After sleeping in a bit Ruth, Galileo, and I went to a castle. Leeds Castle.


Ruth started on my senior pictures. She's amazing! 

The grounds there were stunning. It much reminded me of what I picture Mr. Darcy's yard looking like.


King Henry VIII,
Six wives he was wedded, 
One died, one survived, 
Two divorced, two beheaded

Keep Manhattan Just Give Me That Countryside

We woke up this morning and headed to the airport. After much difficulty all around, Ruth finally made it back home! So glad to have Ruth and Galileo here. While we were waiting Tyler and I played Ticket to Ride again on his iPad...and I won...again. (few times I've been able to say that) 
We packed into their cute little car...and I mean packed and made our way towards Cambridge. Wow it was so beautiful! 

We found a grocery store and picked up some yummy things to have a picnic with. We ate this food in Jesus Green. The sky was so gorgeous early on today!


We walked around Cambridge looking at some of the different schools. Kings College was my favorite. 

We were planing to go punting (boat ride) but it was beginning to rain and we were all very cold! 


I got so many breathtaking photos today! It was really neat to see places 800 years old! Thanks to Mr. Flaniken for giving me information and vibrant details about it before I came. That made it even better!

Praise the Lord!

Galileo's passport, through much difficulty, all worked out and he and Ruth are flying out tonight as planned! Praise to God for working all that out for us! Pray that they'll have a safe journey and make it home safely tomorrow!

Lazy Day

Gotta have a good lazy day every now and then! Tyler had to work today so I slept in and I'm going to organize, read, do school, make bracelets....who knows! By sleeping in...I mean till 2:30. It was so nice. I feel like I'm ready to conquer the world now!

One thing that's been very, very nice this morning is listening to the recording of the Samford Orchestra Concert that I played in last week. If you'd like to check out the performance click here (the actual concert starts at 50 minutes). 

I thought today would be a good time to share with you some very British pictures I've taken along the way! 

Tower Bridge. If you look closely you might see Peter Pan Flying above! :)

Now the London Bridge Hospital is for people who were on the London Bridge when it fell.

Umm excuse me..I think you left off an A.

What's more British than a double decker bus?

Eye of London. It's huge!

Phone Booth!

These guys are all over. and yes. they're' real people.
