And so Europe begins! We started in London, England and spent 2 full days there. Most of the time we just went around and hit the big sights, took some pictures, and moved on to the next sight. We didnt't have a lot of time to spend at any one place. Our favorites were Westminster Abbey (which we only have a picture of on the outside because you can't take pictures inside) and seeing Wicked. The best part of Oxford? Hanging out with our WONDERFUL friends, Scooter & Jessica. It was fun to see the little town of Oxford and to walk around and see the university, but we really just loved talking with them...and I gotta say that the chatter was pretty non-stop, late into the night. Thanks, Scooter & Jessica, for being such incredible hosts and for showing us a great time!
Scooter, Jessica, and I (this is the only picture we took with them) on the streets of Oxford.
Us at the Christ's College Dining Hall. This is where parts of Harry Potter were filmed. Cool!

Going into Wicked. It was a lot of fun!
Buckingham Palace...yeah, we saw the Queen.
Westminster Abbey. This is where the kings and queens of England have been crowned. It's also where Princess Diana's funeral was held.
Big Ben (and Cheesy Chase) and the buildings of Parliament.

I told my sisters last Sunday night when we were visiting that they had to promise to not have children until they had taught English in China and toured Europe and Asia. :) I need some more of this living vicariously.
