Here's a shot of Madeleine, Me and Katie in front of the gardens that line the road on the side of Buckingham Palace.
No trip to London is complete without a ride on the London Eye - a giant, slow-moving Ferris Wheel with pod-style cars. Very cool.
This shot of Parliament and Big Ben was taken from the London Eye. Complete with a backdrop of a dreary English sky. Is it ever sunny in London?
Well, that's it. The final portion of our family trip to Europe in 2007. It was a great trip! We really debated about whether or not to make it a family affair or just Geoff and I. We decided that the girls were old enough (15 and 13 at that time) to really get something out of the trip and also old enough that we would enjoy having them with us. And we were right. Aside from a couple of times when they complained about all the walking, they were so much fun to be with. We have since travelled with them every year. We know our time to travel as a family is quickly coming to an end and we want to make all those memories while we can. Here is my favorite family picture from that trip. A copy of this photo still hangs in the place of honor on my refrigerator.

Looks like a wonderful trip. Fantastic photos!
It all looks so pretty and like you had lots of fun. I am so glad you could share it with your girls. My sister and I are grown, and we still all go on family trips with our parents. They are just a little bigger now with our husbands and kids. We have a blast.
What a coincidence.....that photo is hanging on MY refrigerator, too! :-)
