The Phantom, you know, of the Opera

Maggie (our favorite student teacher here in the UK) and I took a quick trip into the West End to take in a little "Phantom of the Opera." It was fantastic. I have to admit, that I was totally blown away by the production. It was fantastic. Even though I know all the songs and can anticipate all of the tricks, I still found myself holding my breath at times. There is nothing like seeing a really fantastic musical. And the West End has some of the best.

The mussels. And the frites. Delish.

A Perfect Day at Audley End

It is not often that we have a sunny, temperate day here in England where the wind is non-existent and the sun is continuously shining. But we did have one recently, and we spent it at Audley End picnicing with friends and enjoying the grounds.

British Fog

I have never seen anything like a British fog before.
It can be beautiful, if not a bit terrifying.
Here are some pictures of two walks with the pup in Thetford Forest (our usual/daily walk).
