Catching up with a few local kids for a game of Soccer or should we say football,
and a few élocution lessons in french from the experts...
Taste sensations of the world - A real French hot chocolat, thanks Vicki
Chapel of St Michel in a small town in the south of France called Le Puy en Valle. It is one of the oldest Chapels in France and was constructed on 14th July 968. What a sight! and a lot of steps...
Typical French streetscape.
Our First Ride at Disneyland, it only took one hour lineup. (What a day to go, it was a public holiday ha ha!)
Every kids dream... To see this in the flesh. We had an amazing day, George and Darcie had heaps of fun and enjoyed the roller coasters.

London life - Another train trip, making sure we are up-to-date with the local news
Westminster Abbey in all it's glory, many of the British Royals are laid to rest here, not to mention Shakespeare.
Check us out in a traditional phone booth.
We also ran into a couple of Policemen while in London, They call Police "Bobbies" in England. They also wear strange helmets.
We called in to see the Queen at Buckingham Palace, however she would not let us in. Darcie was most disappointed!
We have been really busy while in London, we did a tour of the Tower of London - full of lots of amazing history, we managed to leave with our heads still on unlike some. 
On our bus tour of London we went via the oldest toy store in Europe, it was opened in 1760 it has six floors all for toys... How much fun!
Check out what the locals look like at Legoland... hanging around for far too long!
A sample of what some of Legoland looks like... It is really BIG!
