Big Ben and the London Eyehouses of parliment - mostly i am just crazy about all the beautiful architecture - sorry if that bores you.  it's the sort of thing you don't see in Utah.Westminster Abbey - beautifulbehind the abbey we found this old street.  would love the back of my house and yard to look like this!
mostly taken for my girls - we rode the Underground or Tube, all over London.  very cool.  gets 10 stars over the new york subway!this was funny - when we first checked into our room in london this was what we got - ed just about fits on that bed, but not me!  he could almost touch both walls too.  it was soooooo tiny.  we went back downstairs to tell them "that room is a little too small for two people".  "oh" they said, "you're both staying in it?"  now maybe i'm just dumb to the "ways of the world", but we both had suitcases to haul, we both looked bedraggled from our flight, and I am pregnant! not young and sexy - i mean come on!  what did they think i was doing there with him any way?  perhaps i was the bell boy?i know, it looks like the eastern states.  but to me, it's just perfect. (the picture is not great because i always had to take 'em while the train was moving.  the stations (where it stopped) were pretty drab and looked liked you'd expect a train platform to look like - industrial.)can you see it?  the old, stone house through the trees?  these were the standard on my "drive through the country".  even in the villages the houses were made out of stone and they all had these fabulous, glass and iron greenhouses off the back of them.  ahhh, maybe we could move to the english countryside for our farm. . . .
i was absolutely enchanted by this church graveyard in a little village called Stow-on-the-wold.  it was so peaceful and just old - perfect.this was in a grocery store that day out in the countryside.  it was like a little nieghborhood walmart type grocery, just your standard supermarket, but there was the egg section - awesome.  i guess it only makes sense since the whole countryside is nothing but open sheep grazing and small farms.  three must be a plethora of eggs there.  who collects them i wonder?  oh and the price was something like $2 for a half dozen.okay, garret, this one is just for you.  this is at the london end of the national rail station.  do you think it's popular to bike to work?the tower of london castle.  pretty cool that it is right in the middle of town.
ed & i at an indian restaurant.  not very busy, eh?  we actually went out to eat three times and all the restaurants were basically empty.  weird.  maybe we missed a memo.  it couldn't have been the fault of the chef, the food was excellent.this is at Freitbox - the German fast food fry church, where they worship and eat only fries.  caroline and i shared a <i>small</i> bowl.  yeah, we stuck out something fierce.in caroline & kiem's very modern house in germany.kiem & jonah by their Yellow House and if you look right behind them, you can see the train tracks.  how cool is that?  the platform is right there too (just out of the picture) so kiem has a really great commute, even in bad weather.  oh i should mention, european trains are <i>not</i> like frieght trains, they are very quiet.  i hardly even noticed the train the whole time we were there.
