Hello from England! It is Wednesday morning in the UK. We are in Chandlers Ford at the Frampton's home. Ken and Eric have left to play golf. Noah and Mary have been out of school and will go back tomorrow (Thursday), so we are going to cram 2 adults and 4 children into Lynlee's 1/2 of a car and drive up the road to Winchester to visit the cathedral there.
We have been to the Tower of London, the Natural History Museum, changing of the guard, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Covent Garden, and the London Eye. One day, I took Brandon and Mary to the British Museum, while the guys took Noah and John to the HMS Belfast, heralded as the ship that fired the first shot at Normandy on D-Day.
We did not make it to Oxford on this trip - the boys chose Greenwich instead. New Years Eve was a blast - we were able to walk a 1/2 block from our hotel to see the fireworks over the London Eye - they were fabulous. On New Years Day, the Robinson clan went to see Phantom of the Opera. It was the first broadway performance for John, and he absolutely LOVED it. We had great seats in a very small, intimate theatre.
