Sel and Teresa were still sleeping and this hot chocolate really hit the spot on a cold morning.
We have now been in the UK for 5 days and I have not come out of the bag much at all. I do have to say it has been cold and I didn't bring any clothes with me so it has been nice and warm in the bag. From what I can make out, we went to Madam Tussauds, I peaked out of the bag on the big bus tour but it was freezing, I caught a glimpse of Big ben, went on a river cruise and saw a few big churches.

Chester

Teresa didn't have to do anything wrong to meet the London constabulary. They were pleased to have their photo taken with a couple of Aussie tourists.

HI CHESTER, WE ARE REALLY EXCITED FOR YOU AND THE GIRLS (AND VERY JEALOUS) BEING ON HOLS. WE CAN SEE YOU ARE ALL HAVING A GREAT TIME. THE TWO GIRLS NEED A BIT OF SUPERVISION, SO KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. IT WOULD APPEAR IT IS TIME YOU PUT YOUR PAW DOWN AND DEMANDED SOMETHING TO WEAR. SEE EVERYONE WHEN YOU GET HOME. DON'T FORGET TO COME HOME, AS SELENA IS NEEDED AT WORK. LUV KAREN AND GARY
