We are home...

We are now back in Nashville, Tennessee...tired and bedraggled, but home just as well. We saw so much that we are still still trying to process everything. I think it will take a while, partially because mom and I are, well, I have really bad allergies and can barely breathe, and mom has a headache. Other than that we are able to laugh and remember good times and the time that we spent getting closer. It meant a lot to me, and the pictures of our trip are still flashing through my mind ::smiles:: This is the Thames River. So much history here...the Romans used this river and they thought it was great fun because the river bulges twice a day, so they would get a free ride down the river, and then another free ride on their return trip later that day! This is a shot from Blackfriar's bridge and that walk to the right of the photo is Jubilee Walkway.
We went to the Tower Of London (which is actually a series of towers in a sort of city-esque fortress with cobbled roads, grasses, gates and arches (one of which was called Bloody Gate), dungeons, and, of course, The Beefeaters (which are really called Yeowmen. They both live at and guard the Tower).


so now we are home again. I will write more later...but I have to get ready for work...
