Going!


Well, come Saturday I'll be on my trip for England!
I'm hoping I'll be able to post a couple times overseas, but I probably won't be able to upload any pictures until I'm in the States again.
Here's the itinerary of the places I will be at
London
Warwick 
Stratford-Upon-Avon
Canterbury
Oxford
 
Those are the main places/the ones I can remember right now! I hope I'll be able to keep you all up to date!
Off to pack!

To my awesome dad:

Thanks for…

…working hard so mom could stay home with us! I love being home schooled, and it would not have been possible without you!

        … holding my bug jar when I asked you!


…the pets!

        …playhouses built especially for us.


 …loving us enough to say no and to correct us for doing something wrong.

         …spending time together shopping every Christmas.

….letting us dream up impossible things and you doing them like our awesome Grand Prix cars!
It's Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!

      …most of all, for the Christian home.

Love from all of us kids

Imaginings

Found here
I was searching pictures of Bath, England and found these!
Found here
I had never really seen pictures of Bath, except in Jane Austen movies, so I was surprised to find it may be my favourite location! (At least, it looks the most appealing to me.)

Closer

Time is drawing near for my trip.
Trip? Oh, yeah.  I forgot to mention that....
Hehe...
Yeah.  So I'm going on a trip this summer and that was actually the inspiration for this blog! I thought I put that up here, but I suppose not....
Back to the beginning.
The place where I will go is the living land of  ancient history and legend: a place I've wanted to go in a long time!  I feel as if I go and experience there, I will come back with some of its richness worn off on me. 
The place? England.
When do I leave? June 26th. 
It just hit me two nights ago when I was lying in bed listening to the cockroaches (I'm babysitting them for a friend) scurrying in their cage, that I am going.
I am burning with excitement!
11 more days!
