It's an adventure. Our family of five is taking a year off from... the normal. Less work. More travel. Even (gasp!) homeschooling! We invite you to come along with us as we head West. Then on to Europe. Even grand times at home in between! Our goals: Rest. Connect. Experience. We hope to grow closer as a family and gain a deeper appreciation of all that God is, does, gives. Scaled back commitments. Scaled up adventure. Come along with us as the story unfolds!

Leaving London

Today's our last day in London.  We've had a busy and fun three weeks here.  We've done and seen so much, but I feel like there's so much we didn't do too.  Hopefully we'll post more of the things we did here in London, but for now, I wanted to include some of the more commonplace things we saw.
Loved these mailboxes! 
I always felt weird asking where the "toilets"were!  But if you say bathroom or restroom, they don't know what you're talking about!
 And here's some pictures from the tube - we spent a lot of time riding it!

Goodge Street off the Northern Line is where we'd get off to get to our flat (apartment)
Instead of exit signs
 
And of course, "mind the gap."  (watch your step)
As soon as we'd get on a train, we'd look up at the map, to make sure we knew where we were going and how many stops it took.
We went up more escalators during these three weeks, than I think in my whole life!  There's tons of them in the tube stations.

elevator!
A few nights ago we took a walk at night to see some of the sights lit up.  It was beautiful!



Our next stop is Chipping Campden, a small town in the the Cotswolds (beautiful countryside area in southwest England).  We'll be there for about two weeks, enjoying a slower pace.
