Europe: London, England

you guys... where do i even start with this trip... austin's family does a family trip every year... and man, this one was so much fun! it was a once in a lifetime experience that's for sure! we were able to go on an 11 day cruise through the mediterranean... and the best part was that all 10 (yes, 10) of us got to go! It was austin's parents tim and tamra... austin, chandler and i... austin's sister michelle and her husband tyson... austin's brother tyler, and his sisters whitney and alexa. it was super crazy and action packed, but it was so much fun!

now... what to post first... we flew from las vegas to london. i was super nervous about chandler being on an airplane for 9 1/2 hours... but she did great! we left las vegas a 5:00 pm... and the flight wasn't full at all so austin and i actually had an extra seat in our row... perfect for chandler to sleep in! she actually slept almost the whole plane ride there which was great because we landed in london at 10:00 am.

we spent 3 days on london, england.



 the british museum



the london eye. big ben.


parliament.




the girls trying to impersonate the horses.


the whole fam.


and... AANNNDDDD... we just happened to be in london when the royal baby was born!! oh my gosh, we went to see buckingham palace right when they were doing the whole 50-something gun shot ordeal for the royal baby.. it was suuuuper packed! tons of people! and to wait in line to see the little paper that tells all about the royal baby and the birth?? forget about it! the line was forever long... i'm talking like 3 times a long as any line at disneyland i've ever waited in. but it was still way cool to be there when it was all happening. all the streets we just lined with the british flag and people.


anddd... did i mention that they drive on the opposite side of the road in england?? yea, talk about a heart attack every time we were in a taxi or anything... every time we made a turn or anything, i thought we were going to wreck for sure.

i guess london wore little chan chan out :)
