Heya Peeps..

We went to Hampton Court Palace which is where Henry the 8th "i am, i am" hehe.. where he lived.. the palace is HUGE...! Saw some deers in the Queens Busy Park.. thats what is called.. "Bushy Park".. it was cool, we could go right up to them, but when you look at the photos can you tell that im scared! hahaha..
Other than that, life is good.. we have bought our tickets to Europe for September, we fly into Paris on the 23rd of Sept, and travel through Switzerland, Austria and Germany, then fly home from
The Manor House?The Manor House?The Manor House?

I think thats what its called.. old english house.. hehe.. It used to be the old Missionary Training Centre, now its the Mission Office.. right next to the Surrey England Temple. Pretty house huh.
Berlin in Germany.. very excited about that trip.. and this weekend we are going to York.. WOOHOO.. heard its nice there.. at the end of the month we are going to Liverpool to do the whole Beatles tour and stuff, so that should be fun also. Anyways.. the weather is starting to resemble somewhat of the NZ winter.. so the sun is running away.. ahh well, it was nice while it lasted!
Love ya's.. ali
