BOODABUS IS BOOTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY ASKED KEVIN FOR LEGAL ADVICE AND WANTED HIM TO STAY A WHILE LONGER BUT HE SAID WE WERE ON VACATION AND THEY'D HAVE TO CATCH HIM LATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!day one: arrive! john and colleen's awesome home and hospitality. hot tub to soak away the miles. foxes, bunnies, and tree houses!
day two: big bus, spooky (not) walking tour, trafalgar square (where we saw someone kick a pigeon, it's illegal to feed the birds as my hero mary poppins suggests. THEY CARRY DISEASE! i'm suggesting birthcontrol in their feed because they would be really difficult to spay or neuter and am planning my speach for speakers corner but that is for day 7) the big bus was a great way to get in all the sights while seated! PLUS, at this level (top of the topless bus) you get an awesome view of all the relief on the buildings and the shop signs that hang over the sidewalks!
from bus level! it's on the second story! who else could see her?
from street level! they are a bit more imposing i'm supposing!spooky tour was really a pub crawl. we saw the sherlock holmes pub that had a room set up like the fictitious sleuth's study, a few other charming (but not spooky) pubs. then the few teens in the group suggested we go to fleet street for the spooks, which was perfect for we got to see the actual underground tunnel where the fictitious demon barber sent the dead bodies for mrs. lovett's recipes! delightful! we got a picture.
day three: tower of london! we got right in! not very crowded! perfect weather, yummy scones, impressive armour (suspect henry 8 had an inflated opinion of his physique). ...3 hours later..... we really liked the tower and grounds -lots of stories, lots of different architecural styles. imagine that in a building from the 1600's! very castley, too! with it's torture thingys
and gate thingys.
thought of my brother michael!
ok! today is day 8 and i haven't downloaded pictures from the past 5 days so i have to stop now, plus i'm getting punchy. visit again soon!

This is fabulous! Just what we needed, a dose of Sissy, in words and pictures. Keep taking pictures of all those cool thinygs, it's super educational.
I will forward this to my girl, unless your girls are writing their own blogs?
Thanks for not kicking the pidgeons...
