| 3rd June 2009 Grandma Ann | Cornwall...an amazing experience for you!! - From: Dominic's class trip to Cornwall Dominic...your activities sound simply wonderful! The rock wall climbing sounds impossible to me...and very scary! Did you "sleep like a rock" each night after doing all of these extraordinary things? The hike really appeals to me...how about in Door County along the bay? Could I keep up with you?? I know that you will miss England and your teacher when you return to America. Has he ever been to the USA? |

Best Wishes, Andrea |
| 2nd June 2009 AnneMarie Evans | Happy Family - From: Relaxation in Italy I particularly love the pic titles: "happy family", "happy kids" and "relaxed couple", which seem to capture your experience as an expat family in general. You have done more living in six months than most people do in a lifetime. Good for you! And good to see Jane there. What fun! Miss you and see you soon. :-) |
| 1st June 2009 Amy | Way to go Dominic! - From: Dominic's class trip to Cornwall Very impressive Dominic...you should be really proud! |

| 28th April 2009 Jan | Travel - From: Krakow, Poland Are you sure you are ever going to make it back to Evanston after all this travelling?! |
| 28th April 2009 Jan | - From: Mothering Sunday Just you make sure you get to celebrate the US mothers day too. Rob has banned me from celebrating both but I think you should try!! |
| 12th April 2009 Grandma Ann | HAPPY EASTER TO ALL! - From: Weekend in the English countryside Everyone put on your best Easter clothes and smiles tomorrow for our biggest video call yet!! How much time is each person allowed??? DID THE EASTER BUNNY FIND YOUR HOUSE, ELENA AND DOMINIC? No snow this year...we actually have the patio furniture out, anticipating outdoor sitting weather. Love, Grandma |
| 9th April 2009 Jan | - From: Weekend in the English countryside Did you know that Rob used to live down there? He lived in Mudeford, just outside Christchurch for quite a few years and even lived near Chewton Glen one summer! You also must have gone through Winchester on your way down - hope you waved at our house (which is pretty close to the station). It sounds like you are having a ball. Hope we can catch up by phone once you are done with your Easter break. Love from us all x |
| 7th April 2009 Tasha | Did you miss anything? - From: Weekend in the English countryside I don't suppose you met any Dragons or Damsels in Distress or D'Artagnan or Drawbridges? Special there for Daniels. Hurry home, to Everyone in Evanston who are Enkshus to Eye you. Love, Tasha |
| 7th April 2009 Grandma Ann | Elena's new look - From: Weekend in the English countryside I LOVE your new haircut!! You look more like a third or fourth grader now! THE NEW GIRL NEXT DOOR (who is in fourth grade and is a twin) saw your picture yesterday and wants to meet and play with you! You'll love her, Elena! Her name is Rosie Miss you, Grandma |
| 7th April 2009 Grandma Ann | Engllish Countryside Trip - From: Weekend in the English countryside I envy you mostly with the dinner by the sea and the train ride there! Did you see many small villages like we saw in Southern France and northern Europe with dark thatched roofs? Is the sea that you were by, part of the English Channel? It sounds relaxing and wonderful. Love from Grandma |
| 6th April 2009 Judy Heun | Hey Stranger - From: Spring concerts and a 40th birthday Thanks for keeping your friends back in the States in the know. Give everyone hugs and kisses from the Heuns. xo judy |
| 5th April 2009 Peter Daniels | - From: Spring concerts and a 40th birthday That sure was a wonderful experience singing at St. Luke's Church. I really like the cover Dominic designed too. How many choirs competed? Do the English place a higher emphasis on choirs than band or orchestra? Do most children take private instrument lessons outside of school too? |
| 4th April 2009 Grandma Ann | Fun in London!! - From: Mothering Sunday Your new pictures show how much you're enjoying your life in England! I think you are having one celebration after another!! LIFE IS GOOD!! Does the Easter bunny come to England? Love from Grandma |

| 7th March 2009 Caroline Daniels | wow!!!!!! - From: Fashion show at Cameron House Wow, Dominic! Looking good! That sounds fun! Love, Caroline |
| 5th March 2009 Jan | - From: London wildlife... You should try checking out the Botanic Gardens in Kew - they are lovely and also a haven from London life (although you can still sometimes hear the planes overhead!). |
| 4th March 2009 Caroline | Sounds Beautiful! - From: London wildlife... That wildlife preserve sounds beautiful, and peaceful! Wow! Love, Caroline |
| 4th March 2009 Kary | - From: London wildlife... I'm not surprised that you guys would find the huge wetlands reserve in the middle of a big city!! This will be your little get-away-from-urban-London space! Just think of it as the Botanic Gardens without the Henry family. |
| 28th February 2009 Sarah | - From: Barcelona sunshine After spending one's 11th birthday in Barcelona, how does one celebrate #12? Book the Rolling Stones? We miss you. Keep sending the photos!! |
| 27th February 2009 Jan | - From: Barcelona sunshine I'm glad you loved Barcelona and what a great way to spend a birthday for Dominic. You are certainly jet setting around but I had forgotten about all the half terms breaks you could make use of. Where is next? |
| 27th February 2009 andrea johnson | Sounds like a great B-Day - From: Barcelona sunshine I am glad you had a good time in Barcelona. Dave and I were there in 1994 - our first real vacation as a married couple. We drove through France all the way to Spain in our tiny Nissan Micra. The architecture is interesting and amazing! What a wonderful experience for the kids and your family! We just got 7 inches of snow here in Minneapolis... |
| 26th February 2009 Ann Daniels | Barcelona looks warm and wonderful!! - From: Barcelona sunshine We[re glad you got to relax and see the sights of Barcelona on Dominic's birthday. It looks beautiful. It's cold, rainy, foggy and miserable here today...hopefully, better days are coming!!!! |
| 26th February 2009 katelyn | - From: Barcelona sunshine It looks like you are having too much fun. We are worried you wont want to come home... |
| 21st February 2009 Ann Daniels | Elena...are you and Caroline writing stories together? - From: School and work in London... Hi Elena! What was Barcelona like? What did you like best about your trip? Will you be able to tell your class on Monday about your trip? We have blowing, drifting snow today!!! AGAIN!!! Don't you wish you were here??? Love, Grandma Ann |

| 6th February 2009 Kary | Snow day! - From: Snow day in London! What fun to get your first snow day in London!! The girls have already had a snow day here this year (right before Christmas break), but now we're looking forward to the tropical temperature of 39 degrees today!! The sun is shining, and it feels positively balmy. Love these updates -- thanks for doing them! Love to you all! Kary, Jeff, Kate & Sophie |
| 6th February 2009 Grandma Ann | The groundhog was WRONG!! - From: Winter weekend in London It's going to be 40+ degrees in the next few days...spring is on its way! Punxsutawney Phil said 6 more weeks of winter...he was wrong this time!!! I wonder what the temperature in London is today! |
| 5th February 2009 Amy | Are you enjoying the snow and London? - From: Snow day in London! Hi Mark and family, I DID hear about London's snow on the radio and I was thinking about you! I hope all is going well over seas. Madison is currently experiencing a heat wave and temps are expected to get to 43 degrees by Saturday! We will most likely take the girls skiing on Sunday, assuming the conditions on the hills are good. Please continue to stay in touch and say "hi" to Pam for us. Love to all, Amy |
| 2nd February 2009 Grandma Ann | SNOW DAY IN LONDON!! - From: Winter weekend in London A snow day in London!! Have fun, kids!! Did you bring your snowshoes and sleds? Take some pictures of your neighborhood...how many inches did you get? Two or three??? |
| 31st January 2009 Caroline Daniels | Cute!! - From: Weekend in Antwerp Dear Elena, what a cute bunny!! I have never gotten to meet a bunny before. Is he soft? You can email me if you want me to edit any of your stories! Love, Caroline |
| 26th January 2009 jude edwards | schools! - From: First impressions from Pam... Hey Pam. I was shocked and horrified to realise that the whole school uniform thing is such a mind-field! So on behalf of the British Schooling System ......I offer my sincerest apologies. Any questions.... please feel free to ask! |
| 26th January 2009 Ann Daniels | Elena's Call! - From: First impressions from Pam... It was so fun to talk to you today and hear all about your school, friends, new London sights, teachers, choir, museum, BIG BEAR, and much more. Have a good week at school, kids! Love, Grandma Ann |
| 26th January 2009 Caroline Daniels | Assembly - From: School and work in London... Wow, Elena!!! The assembly sounds fun!! Have you been writing any stories lately? Love, Caroline |
| 25th January 2009 Ann Daniels | I want to be there! - From: Winter weekend in London What great fun for you...in the midst of London. So much to see, to do, and take in...lucky you!! Have fun with Cathy and Bill. We'll be waiting to hear if they could get around London by themselves...and to give hope to US!! Love, Mom |

| 17th January 2009 Cynthia Rolfe | So glad you're settled in - From: Getting set up in London... Pam and Mark: I hope you got my text about the Italian restaruant. Zianni's is the place that was my absolute favorite when I live din London. Try the lemon scented pasta with lamb. The owenrs are very welcoming and warm. The best pub in your area (same as mine was) in the Pheeny Arms which is near Oakley I think...it is the major road that goes across the Thames just west of the Battersea Bridge. If the washer defeats you take sheets and towels to the laundry as I did. The combo washer-dryer did not work for large things. There is a square (triangle really) just north of the Kings Road between the McDonalds and the Waitrose that has a laundress, a fish monger and iron monger (hardware store) and has many things you won't find elsewhere in pricey, posh Chelsea. We miss you! |
| 8th January 2009 Caroline Daniels | Hello! - From: Getting set up in London... Wow!! The uniform really does look cute on Elena! I can't wait to hear more about London!! |
| 8th January 2009 Grandma Ann | Elena's Uniform - From: Getting set up in London... Elena's new uniform hat and coat is just the cutest thing I've ever seen! She looks like a proper English young lady now. Does she wear it out for recess? It looks a little formal for play!!! |
| 7th January 2009 Daniels Family Travelers | We wish you could be here too! - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... I think you would be inspired as a writer to be in Chelsea! The British LOVE to read. When I ride the Tube to work, everyone reads novels on the train instead of reading emails like in the US! Thanks for watching our blog! |
| 7th January 2009 Daniels Family Travelers | I'll call with stories today... - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... The weather here is very cold to them but just like winter to us! It actually is sunny a bit each day - and no rain yet! |
| 7th January 2009 Ann Daniels | Weather in London! - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... It's cold, dreary, rainy, snowy, slippery, blustery, and yucky here in Wisconsin. What is it like in London in January? Does the sun shine occasionally? Does it rain everyday? I'll bet it's better than Waukesha, WI!!!! |
| 2nd January 2009 jude edwards | cup of tea - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... Hey Guys Welcome to England. It's so good to have you in the country. It's not often that I get to London, but just by co-incidence I will be in the City this Saturday, 3rd Jan. I know that you will have barely landed and I don't want to bombard you.... but is there any chance I could pop by for a cup of tea please?.... just to say hi? .... then I'll be on my way! RSVP very quickly, All for now Jude |
| 1st January 2009 Ann Daniels | Safe and happy traveling to you!!!!! - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... What an adventure! I envy you all and will be thinking of you daily! We hope the flight is easy. Elena, what a birthday you will have! You'll always remember this particular birthday, won't you? |
| 31st December 2008 Caroline Daniels | Goodbye! - From: Ready to leave for the UK.... Goodbye and good luck as you head off to London! I am excited to read all your blog entries and find out what you're doing! I would love to live in another country, someday, so I'll be eager to find out what it is like! Happy New Year! Love, Caroline |
