friday forte: continuing the travel theme

our flight, originally uploaded by ebbandflo_pomomama.

Surely you can guess where we are now?

Yes, we've moved on to the second european capital referenced in the blog blurb above this post. The Wee Guy are traveling.

This is the most exciting part of the holiday aside, of course, from seeing long lost family again and staying in my childhood home for almost a month. It's also the most nerve-wracking. Although I've traveled solo with the Wee Guy before now, it's always been strictly to one destination and then home with a few side trips to other friends, relatives, etc. thrown in. This time our travels are more of the backpacking, staying in strange hotels/hostels, exploring unfamiliar cities type.

OK, so London isn't exactly unfamiliar territory to me but oh boy has it changed in the last decade since I flit countries.
So far? fun. We've got another three capital cities to fit in though so wish us luck.

Today's slideshow (including a flight on the London Eye, meeting up with Rob and Andrea of Got Craft?, and a totally unplanned watching of the changing of the guard, is here :)
