I Spy Myself

This evening has been the first time since my return from London that I have had a chance to watch the recording of the wedding and what to my eyes should amazingly appear - yes, we made national telly.  My sons recorded the wedding on MSNBC and in the first half hour of watching I spied me and Mary.  For any of my friends or followers who recorded it we are on it when the London time is listed at 8:48 a.m. 

Now I only have to watch 10 MORE HOURS to see if we appear again.  The wedding trip that just won't end!  

Reality vs Royalty

The wedding is over and bags unpacked so it's back to reality for this blogger. The past 5 months of planning really paid off and the trip to London was fantastic. Some of the most surprising things I learned: The Brits do have a sense of humor, the crowds were very well behaved, it doesn't always rain in London, mushy peas taste great, the English are healthy eaters, Heathrow airport is really outdated, double deckers are fun, the exchange rate sucks, there's nothing like a royal wedding to put a town in a party mood but most of all-home is where I belong!
