To explore strange new worlds and new civilizations...

This blog is our attempt to bring you with us in our adventure through the UK and Europe. We're not only in search of new places, but direction, path, purpose, and a broadened perspective. If you're reading this, we invite you to grow with us, to share in our experiences that will certainly help define us for the rest of our lives. Something that powerful is certainly not something we'd want you, our friends and loved ones, to miss. So please, join us. Because these days will define us forever.

So, Allons-y!

London: Check!

In our time in London, we were able to see/do...
*Westminster Abbey
*Parliament
*Big Ben
*Tower of London (where they keep the crown jewels, where prisoners have been held, where Anne Bolyen was executed, and where people have been murdered)
*Been to a British pub
*Had fish and chips
*Had a traditional English Sunday roast (amazing - we're eating WAY too well on this trip thus far)
*Ridden the London Eye
*Seen Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
*Saw St. Paul's Cathedral and went to a service there
*Visited Buckingham Palace
*Have enjoyed classic and tradition British tea time. One of my new favourite times of day.
*Visited Windsor Castle, one of the Queens multiple homes, and from what I hear, the weekend favourite.
*Seen the Bailey (those of you that have seen V for Vendetta will know what I'm talking about)
*Visited Hyde Park, Green Park, etc
*Seen some of the football pitches!
*Discovered "Goodenough College" (Well, are you?)
*Found the London Church of Scientology (wasn't looking for it, but we inquired within anyway...)
*Visited Eton College, where our host and personal tour guide went to high school (With Princess Diana's boys William and Harry). He's famous.
