Look who's in London!

First meal in the land of the UK!
The city in the backround
Parliament in the backround


In front of Buckingham Palace
Pall Mall
Having lunch in St. James' Park
The NZ memorial in Hyde Park
Having a pint at the local after a long day walking around London
Biggin Hill Airshow






Wooohooo! Look what Dad managed to climb into!

Sorry for the late post! I know your all waiting for the first cut of photos, so here are a few goodies....

Papa arrived safe and sound on Friday afternoon after a 30 hour trip from sunny Nelson. Don't think he was expecting the sensational weather the UK has put on for him, but nothing like a bit of sunshine to get rid of the jet lag. We have seen a few 32 degree days so far, and they are expecting 33 tomorrow! I'm guessing he brought this good weather with him, because it surely wasnt here before.

We had a busy weekend exploring London and the Biggin Hill airshow. Dad walked to Wimbledon on Monday to see what was going on... couldn't see much from the outside, but at least he got close! He's now in Wales for the night, and then we're off to Spain on Friday for the weekend. I think I'll need a holiday after all of this!

Will someone do something about that grin all over my Daddy's face!!! He gonna get sore face muscles!!! Cut down the beer and see how it goes then. All looks very sunny and warm - well done Nat and Si. Keep them pics rolling in. Hope dad took lots of pics in Wales too.

Some historic photos of Les and tourist guides supreme!
Those shots at the air show incredible. As for the weather obviously global warming has only happened in the Northern Hemisphere - the southern climes of NZ the coldest for some years. Carry on with your exciting travels.
