Oxford Suits You Erica ..... Oxford suits you. I can imagine you conversing and exchanging ideas with other men and women of high intelligence and charm. Maybe a school like this is part of your future. One never knows what road the Lord has designed specifically for us ..... but it will be grand!
This is one of my favourite parts of the day ....... checking in to see what adventure the Roebbelen family has been on most recently. What a fabulous gift, Erica, posting this blog!
Buckingham Palace is so beautiful and you got some amazing photos of the changing of the guard. Julia ....... love that cute smile, glad you are feeling better. Sharon, why didn't you pick up the phone and call?
Enjoying taking this trip with you. Love and hugs
Not the Queen I am sure it was not the Queen, for had it been, you would have been invited to tea ....... what else would a gracious lady do when she comes in delightful proximity to one of the finest families on the planet? Glad to see that it was a sunny day to savour such marvelous gardens. Love to you all
Synchronicity God amazes me both with his extravagances and his attention to details. I had never heard of Annie Dillard until 2 weeks ago when our family GP prescribed reading her, along with regular exercise and prayer, as a good way of life. And now, Erica, fair pilgrim, you are bringing her to my attention in the context of creation yet again! Enjoy the read; enjoy the journey. As you know, I will be at the other end of the earth being humbly ready to be awed by the magnificence of creation in the young lands of the new world while you explore the old. Looking forward to exchanging stories when you return. Hugs to everyone.
Lovely pics but we want to see YOU Sharon are you sure you wouldn't want to be back here at work with us...missing you..Take care and be sure to have a cup of tea for all of us on our behalf. Cheers.
Not the Queen Who is writing the journal entries?? Just curious. Glad you're having a fun thus far.
As for the pic of the lady in the garden. Doesnt' look like the queen. There are huge staffs of royal gardners at all of the palaces. One day you should read the book "Earthly Joys" by Philippa Gregory which gives a detailed account of the role of the gardeners in the royal family. Very interesting.
Be safe and have some real "ale" for me... :)
Monday, June 25th Already looking to see what you all are up to. Enjoy London. It was only a year ago Bob, Adam and I were traipsing around the beautiful city of London.
Will check in later - enjoy your trip and each other.
Bon Voyage This couldn't be happening to a nicer family. I will enjoy travelling vicariously through you and your passports. Travelling mercies on you all.
Bon Voyage :) Dear Roebbelen family. I would like to wish you all a wonderful holiday and adventure. May the Lord truely bless you. I will be praying :) Love you all! Paul
Peter, Sharon, Erica and Julia
For various reasons the individuals comprising the aforementioned quartet are all in near desperate need of escape and adventure, change (and hopefully riddance) of routine, refreshment and relaxation, and inspiration and indulgence. These things we hope to find in varying degree as we make our way together through England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece and Turkey.... full info
