A trip teaser....

This is just a highlight of our five week adventure in England and France:

Glass floors don't scare me! Checking out the Spinnaker Tower at Gunwharf.

Riding the bus with Nanny.
Braving the beach.... it was not warm and we were the only ones there. This is before we ran for cover at the coffee shop.

Sarah and Alec enjoy a rest at the bar in Jugon-les-lacs.

We stayed in the house where the black car is parked. Pretty!

For future reference, the car museum in Le Mans is closed on Tuesdays. Next time, phone before the two hour drive....

Josh gives Alec the guided tour of Mont St. Michel.

With this cannon I can take over the world! WAH HA HA HA HAAAAAA

Carcassonne.... 1000 year old cities are slightly lost on toddlers.
Now they are talking my language...

The highlight of Carcassonne.

Josh, this amphitheatre is older than Grandpa.
No way!

Visiting the Pont du Gard at the end of a very long day.

Happy Birthday, Mommy! A birthday breakfast in France means croissants from the bakery, of course.

A birthday dinner out at a real restaurant.... how will the boys destroy the place?

They don't! Josh eats dinner like a gentleman and gets praise from the tables around us. Check out the children's menu in France. Is that a spinach spring roll?

Matching!

Back in Portsmouth!

Josh and Ruby enjoy a meal together and sat down for at least 5 whole minutes.

Whitmores are out and about. A rare sighting of Sam!

Becoming an expert at cycling. Pink power....
