While others are cold...at least our "birdies" are cozy and snug!

A Bridge Too Far...

Do you know where this is???

London


Porter and I went to London in November 2006 to celebrate our 37th anniversary. (This was also the same weekend as Veteran's Day). The weather was beautiful...no rain or fog! We visited the memorial to the veterans at Westminster Abbey and we observed Queen Elizabeth dedicate the new memorial to the New Zealand soldiers! (...never thought we'd see the Queen!...we even saw the Prime Minister and Prince Charles!) Of course, that was not our objective of the trip--those "sightings" just served as "icing on the cake" for our first visit to the UK. Of course, we could not do it all...see it all, etc., so we have vowed for a return trip--perhaps next New Year's??? (We saw their fireworks display on television and it appears to be a sight to behold!...hmmm...better start $aving now!!!)

"...Merry New Year..." !!!

Welcome to 2007! We hope your 2007 will bring you good health, love of family, and much prosperity! On a "spur of the moment", we decided upon a trip to Amsterdam to "ring" in the New Year! What fun we had and what a way to say "goodbye" to the old year and what a way to "welcome" the New Year -- by doing one of the things we love most -- traveling!!! (The only thing missing of course, was our family).
