Amsterdam!

Some delayed pictures from a weekend trip to Amsterdam earlier in April.  We didn't get quite the tulip fields we were hoping for - but a great time at the petting zoo and a lovely bike ride up the north sea :-)

Pictures from Nice...

Lisbon!

A great weekend away to Lisbon with friends Chris and Margaret.  These pictures are misleading however because they were taken during the only 2 hours it wasn't raining the entire weekend.  Don't let yourself be fooled that Portugal is sunny all the time!

England & Scotland

Some long overdue pictures from time with the family around England and our trip up to Edinburgh.

Happy Christmas!

A few quick pictures to wish everyone happy christmas as I celebrate here in London with my parents!

Cornwall!

I spent a lovely weekend down in Cornwall, staying in St Ives.  The best way to describe Cornwall to my mind is a rustic, rugged Cape Cod.  The towns are small with lost of personality - but build into cliffs and inlets which lend a much more wild feel.

While there I took advantage of some day hikes along the coast, visited Lands Ends (the point of England closes to the US), Penzance and St Michel's Mount.

Thanksgiving Pictures!

Since I'm so horribly late in posting.  I'll just share a few pictures from the fantastic Thanksgiving dinner that was thrown in Wales (for 'the american') a few weeks ago.

Also to kick off the weekend a few of us went to the Wales v Samoa rugby game in Cardiff - here's my with my friend Ryan who jumped over from DC for the weekend!
