Jimmy and Anna

Pretty Women

But wow what a sexy man

Well as our big adventure over this side of the world draws near to a close we have been trying to pack in as much as possible before we leave in May. The reality that we are coming home is starting to sink in so we are now viewing London with a totally different persepective as we realise we probably wont see that land mark, this road, those shops, the parks etc for a while. It has been kind of cool being a tourist in a city we have now lived in for nearly 2 and a half years. This is where Anna would pop up and say that I have always been a tourist but London is just one of the cities where having a camera with you at all times is a must.

So the Patersons and of course little rocky have been rather busy over the last few weekends as we try and cross off all the things we wanted to do and see before we leave. And we are pleased to say that we are having success. Thankfully the London weather has been good enough for us to get out and about and enjoy London and

Mr Cruise

Hmmm they look quite good together. Should I be worried Anna

some of the beautiful. english countryside.

So what have we been doing. Well it started with a trip to Madam Tussards. It certainly won't go down as one of our highlights but it was just one of those things you have to do. In saying that, we enjoyed it and it was certainly worth a visit. We then headed north to Oxford where Anna and I felt right at home with all the schollars. It is a lovely little town with a cool buzz to it. We then spent the day at Hampton Court Palace. This is one of those things you should do in the summer but we didn't really have much say in that matter. Still we had a great day enjoying the palace and the gardens. it really is a beautiful place. And then last weekend we spent the day in kent at Leeds castle. This place is just stunning ad the photo's don't do it justice. It was so nice to get out of London, have some sun on the face and enjoy the beautiful english countryside. Winter has finally ended with spring now in the air.

We now only have one full weekend

Get your......

hands and eyes off my girl

left in London which is a little scary. We are off to Lille in France for Easter, then off to Woodstock which is just north of Oxford where we are staying with Anna's ex boss in there holiday home which is on the Blenheim estate where Churchill lived when he was growing up. Then off to Cardiff to see the Welsh cousins and before we now it we will be on the plane to Croatia for 2 weeks before we fly home.

So lots going on. Life is great over here and we are making the most of the remaining time we have. Anna and baby are doing amazingly, Anna is just flourishing and looking so good and healthy. Next scan is the 20 week which is next week so that will be exciting.

So I guess we will see many of you real soon. YAY!!!
