Ahhhh...Europe

I am sad to say I am home from a wonderful 8 day trip to Europe. I went to London and Paris with side trips to St. Albans and Stone Henge. It had been 20 years since I was there with London being my first visit.
Up everyday at 5:24am ( that when the sun comes up over there) and out and about by 8am to museums, site seeing and great food. It is hard to say what was my favorite part but I do want to say it wasn't easy to come home and I feel our children are really missing out on the fantastic museums, old architecture and slower way of life.
Here are some photos to give you little taste of my trip. You will see pics from The Tower of London, Harry Potter Studios, St. Albans, StoneHenge, Buckingham Palace, The Eiffel Tower, The Marais Village, Montmartre, The Catacombs, Notre Dame, Musee Dorsay, The Louvre, The Rodin Museum, etc...  I'm planning on going back very soon.
