After a week in Paris we took the Eurostar (the chunnel) to London where we had one last night with Joel's parents. After that we had a great visit with all my second cousins (my mother's first cousins and their kids). The weather allowed us to walk the heath and take in some views of the city we'd never seen before. Cheers to all of you who came out to see us! We wish we were in the UK more often to visit.
We spent New Years with our long time friends Ben and Jess in the Camden Town area where we visited markets and laid out a spread of food and had an evening of great conversation and fun with their circle of expat friends. We trekked up to a park just before midnight to see the fireworks downtown. You can't get more jovial than the Brits when it comes to any holiday or Sporting event (or really any occasion with alcohol involved).
The trip to the UK was far too short to really fit in more than that. I know we'll be back before long. London is one of those places in the world where we feel very at home and this being my fourth trip through I was very aware that I need to spend more time here.
