IMG_1489Back from London and we had a great time.   I did manage to find a scrapbooking store ;o)… As Gabby would say:  “My Mom would look for a scrapbooking store in Antarctica…LOL

One of my favorite things we did was a FREE Harry Potter walking tour.  You can download the tour here:  harry-potter-pdf@discovery-walks.com

For those of you who are Harry Potter fans (me included) ;o) 

Here are a few pictures from the first movie that where filmed in Oxford, Christ Church:

Recognized these stairs?  Yes, this is where the first years lined up just before entering the hall before the sorting hat.

  4. Bore us to tears? Oh my gosh! Never! Not with those lovely photos. How can London ever be boring? I've never been and I wish I could go. Looking at these photos give me Wanderlust and I want to go visit Europe now.

    Thanks for sharing those wonderful photos with us. It looks like you had a marvelous time. I'm happy that you had the chance to go and that you had a save journey.
