London

We stopped in Geneva to visit with a friend and tour a bit before heading to the airport. 
Mom, Erin, Kent in Geneva
I soon handed over the navigation chore to my 2 kids who could read the small print on the maps :)
Erin and Kent with lion friend on Trafalgar Square
Erin and Kent, Big Ben
Erin and Kent Westminster Abbey
Mom and Kent at Parliament Building with Big Ben
(see the blue sky?)
Fish and Chips at the Tower of London
At the Tower of London after the fabulous tour
Kent with the oldest map of the County of Kent
Erin's favorite attraction!
Waiting for our tour in the Shakespeare Globe Theatre
Kent on the Millennium Bridge (featured in Harry Potter)
Can you believe those blue skies?
At Buckingham Palace
We took several to get one good one (see above)
Westminster Cathedral--awesome mosaics inside
Our exasperation with Kent in trying to take a picture of us :)
Kent's favorite!
The Loo of the Year Award in Hyde Park--makes you want to go check out the Loos, huh?
Kent and Erin in Handel's House in period dress--too cute!
We had a great time and great weather (some blue skies and temps in 60)--not sure my kids really experienced London.  Dan and the boys enjoyed themselves at home but we are all glad to be back together and ready for school to start tomorrow.

What an education you and your family are having. Thanks for sharing since I will never get to go to those places.
