I have always wanted to do family pictures in the cities where we’ve spent the summers, but I’ve never done it. About a month before our trip I stumbled on the blog Love and London. She offered vacation photo shoots at famous London landmarks and I jumped at the chance. The day we were supposed…
Our day in Edinburgh was a little bit meh. Except for these Kelpie statues that Rusty really lovesI think we were coming down from our Glencoe high. We woke up to some pretty bad news about TapInfluence being acquired by Izea. This was a huge blow that came from left field. We had no idea…
We slept in and ate breakfast at our cabin. Then we went to explore! We found the spot where Hagrid’s hut was filmed and we took a little hike up to Signal Rock. Josh discovered these tiny little frogs hopping all over the trail and they were the hit of the hike! We all wished we…
We got up early and rode a train and a coach to get to the airport. Was the last time we’d ride public transportation in London so we also stopped to get the rest of the money refunded on our Oyster card. I love that London does that! We landed in Inverness and went to […]
Or what will hereafter be known as the Day of the Bathrooms.” More to come on that soon…. We took the Overground and rented a car in Hammersmith. It was quite the ordeal and it took us a lot longer to get on the road than expected. And it was our first time driving on…
We decided to wait until the late afternoon to venture out. We are tired of battling the heat (I feel like I say that everyday!) and since the Tate was open late tonight, it was nice to go out after the peak heat of the day. We hoped to be able to catch the end…
It’s hard to believe we are winding down our time in London. Only a few days left! We wanted to go do all our favorite things one last time. So we set out on Friday to make that happen. The day did not get off to a great start. We arrived at Victoria Station and…
This was, without a doubt, the best London date night. Dinner was at Dishoom, which is the restaurant I wanted to come to for Rusty’s bday the first night we were in London. The line was too long then, and too long when we tried to come back a few weeks later before Bat out…
It was a bit overcast today which meant a break from the direct sun, but the humidity was intense! Go away heat wave! We set out to explore Portobello Market and Notting Hill today. Thank you bloggers who have done all the work in planning exactly where to go to see all the cute houses. …
After our long day out in the sun the kids were begging for some down time. Rusty and I left them at the apartment to rest and relax and he and I hopped on a tube to Camden Market for a morning date. Rusty didn’t go with us last time so he was excited to try…
