To celebrate Stephanie's graduation, we took a family trip to her number one dream place to visit--England. We spent four days in London, and thoroughly enjoyed using the Underground Tube and double-decker buses in order to get around, visiting museums, parks, palaces, and cathedrals. We also enjoyed a variety of foods and seeing a multitude of people. We were lucky to have only one day of light rain, and we used it to go see Wicked, which was a hit with everyone. The rest of the week was sunny. We also spent four days using a rental car and driving west to see Stonehenge, staying in Bath and Stratford upon Avon, seeing where Shakespeare was born, and visiting Oxford. There are a lot of photos here, which only show a portion of everything.
