More snow!

We got another morning of snow over this past weekend. Quite a bit more than last time too, Beth of course was elated.







This guy had a bit too much to drink...

London Snow

Snow finally fell in London, Bethie is very excited! Here's some happy snaps out on the roof:






Keep an eye out for an upcoming post from our warm trip home.

Stonehenge

We had our first visit to Stonehenge on Saturday. I say first because i'd love to go back sometime, early morning or at dusk. Too many other folks there, it felt quite touristy which of course it is.

It's a lot smaller than you expect, though not being able to actually walk through it as one used to probably takes away from it's awe. I'd love to have been able to touch rocks that are 5000 years old. (Ok, the rocks existed a lot longer than 5000 years ago, but even still...) The rocks came from Wales, before there was 4WD so no wonder it took 1000 years to build...

The Tower Of London

Last week Bethie and I took a tour through the Tower Of London. It's one of the oldest buildings in London and was the site of a few dozen executions. The Beefeaters and other staff actually live in quarters on site, a stone's throw from where Royalty once lived themselves.

Beth goes Ice Skating!

Bethie had a ball at the Tower Of London Ice Rink on Sunday.

Happy New Year!

Counting down to 2008!



Getting ready to bring in the new year with a bottle of bubbly.



Cheers!




And Happy New Year :)

Oxford

Beth and i got up to Oxford on Sunday, around 100 miles north of London. The coach ride was fine, the surrounds look fantastic for a drive, hope we can do it sometime.

Oxford is a very old city, many old buildings still exist from the 1300's and prior. I think we'll need another visit to take more in.
