London



London was amazing.  We had a fabulous time visiting our friends and the city.  Below are some of the pictures from the trip. 

Kyle's first sip of beer (London Pub beer that is)

Fish & chips


Long story short....I was so excited to see the John Snow Pub because John Snow is a bit of a Legend in the Infection Prevention and Epidimiology world.  Turns out the Broadstreet Pump that I was so excited to see was torn out for road work while we were there.  So sad:(

Royal Courts of Justice
Inside the Courts of Justice

St. Bride's Church (in which the wedding cake is patterned after)

St. Paul's Church


The next few pictures are a side of London that most travelers don't get to see.  This is our friend's house that overlooks the Thames River in Staines.
 

Westminster Abbey



Not pictured was the Churchill Museum which was really neat. 

Friday Night we went out for Indian food and ended the night with Les Mis.  It was incredible!


Saturday we went to Windsor Park -Technical difficulties with these pictures.....they aren't posting. Sorry, it was beutiful though.

Sunday we headed in to the city one last time. 

The next few pictures are of the Tower of London  (never mind, only one picture-more technical difficulties).  This was one of our favorite things we did.  We could have spent all day there.







The next few pictures are out of order.  They were things we did on Friday but I am getting too lazy to move them up where they should be.




These pics are on a stroll through St. James Park.  Spring has started in London and the flowers are beautiful.





 Below are some pictures from our trip to Windsor.  This is the place we had tea.
 Notice Kyle's pinky is out for proper tea drinking-Just kidding, we don't know if you are supposed to stick your pinky out but it seemed so natural for him.
 Windsor Castle



Kyle and Reed finished the trip with an evening attempt at fishing.  They were not successful but it turns out Drew caugh a huge fish at my parents while they were fishing.
