How lucky we felt to wake up to blue skies and the sun shining! As we were walking to the underground we passed this neat church.
These two pictures are the result of Logan and Sophie practicing their photo skills.
We went straight to the Tower of London where we spent the bulk of our day.
Logan was making sure we always knew where we were going and what we wanted to see next.

Dallas trying to see if he has what it takes to be a knight.
We got to see the guards march around the grounds and shout out their commands with their British accents. Our kids have their march down pretty good.
The Yeomen Warders or Beefeaters, wear my favorite uniforms at the Tower.
The Tower Bridge.
We couldn't stop saying this little phrase, now the kids say it on any public subway system we go on, just make sure you get the accent right.
We couldn't believe it when Logan spotted Travis-He was right there in the underground. We aren't sure where he had been, but he looked like he had a good time.
We miss you Trav!
The famous phone booths of London.
We surprised the kids and bought tickets for Wicked before we left for London. We weren't going to tell them until we got there, but they were having such a great time in the beautiful communal garden behind Andrea's house that it was a little tricky to pull them away, so we told them and they ran in like lightning. They were hooping and hollering. 
Annie, Jesse in their seats. The man we sat next to didn't know anything about Wicked (hard to believe since we have the entire CD completely memorized), so we tried to fill him in a little but I'm not sure it worked because at intermission as we left to go to the restroom he said, "See you later, have a great trip!" We had to tell him it was only half over-the best was yet to come.
The girls thought that was hilarious.

The kids were completely mesmerized the whole time-they loved it. When I asked Logan if he would want to see it again he said, "Yes, like 100 times".
I must say it was totally Wicked!!
Thanks Mark for continuing to make my dreams come true.
