Enjoy the last days of your trip!!!!
Megan and Matt, We have relished sharing all your adventures and can't wait to hear more when we see you. I just read several blogs as I needed to catch up and it's exhausting just reading how much you've fit in! I'm going to have Ali read your London blog as she will be there (and Paris, Rome, Florence, Athens and Greek cruise) in June/July with a group from her high school (her Grad. present). Have a good trip home to sunny California! Love and hugs, Aunt Diane
