Our London Trip

So this was mine and Una's (my niece) first trip ever overseas! We both had loads of fun! (of course!) We weren't prepared for how cold it was gonna be and we just about froze our bums off! The day of departure was sad because Alberta (Una's mom) made both Una and I cry. I think Alberta cried more than Una, well I know for a fact because mom wouldn't let go of Una. I had to practically drag Una away. In the end however, it was all good. The overnight flight over was hard for me because of my restless leg syndrome. I was so exhausted when we landed and we didn't stop to rest at the hotel instead we took a quick tour of a small area of the city. I have an itinerary somewhere which I won't dig up but overall, we visited about 4 towns and toured alot of churches. I think my favorite place was visiting the little town of Haworth, Yorkshire. The Bronte Parsonage Museum is located there. My only regret that day was I didn't walk out onto the Moors. It was towards the end of our trip and I wasn't smart enough to buy a sweater and it was freezing that day with bitter cold wind blowing that I decided to warm up in the local pub. Throughout the whole ten days we spent in Great Britain I really enjoyed it and hope to someday fly to Italy. I know it was a good experience for Una. I'm glad I took pictures but at the same time wish I had taken more. I've posted a few here so I hope you enjoy them.
