Raclette, yumm. Please invite me if you do it again.

And I do miss the pantomimes. You brought back many memories with this post, glad you had a wonderful New Years, bag crisis notwithstanding...

Sounds like a lovely adventure, how fun. Too bad about the suitcase though, that could really put a damper on things!
I would love to take my kids to a pantomime, I think they would adore it.
Have fun skiing!

Gorgeous pics! Did I tell you my husband lived in York for a year when he was 14? His dad got a master's at the university there and they dragged seven kids over for a year. LOVED it in the end, but it was quite the trial to get them all there and settled.

I love your photos... It's almost as good as being there. Or at least pacifies me until we finally get to travel. Just 14 more years until my youngest is 18. :)

This sounds wonderful! I'd love to see a pantomime! After reading this, I don't think you need to fear that your boys are overly dependent on their electronic toys. Sounds to me like they enjoy good old fashioned fun even more!

Sounds like a great trip (minus the luggage woes)! Happy New Year!

sounds like a great time - sans the baggage issue...we had a similar problem this Christmas...we flew from Ottawa to BC and on our return flight they lost 3 pieces of our baggage - one being our car seat...now we have to buy a car seat and they are only giving us $100! and the seat they lost is closer to $200!

Happy New year!!!

Typical airline service. glad the rest of the trip was so great though! And bring on the licorice allsorts..one of my alltime faves.
Cross country skiing--I am too jealius.
We FINALLY got a couple inches of snow here in the Carolinas yesterday (my snow dance worked), and we have been having a blast, since of course the entire city of Asheville shut down due to the fact that we rarely see the white stuff. I grew up in the North though, so I am lovin' it!

Licorice allsorts! I needed allsorts for a cake I was decorating last year and found myself SOL. No allsorts in my neck of the woods.

I love the English and their fusty candies.

Ah, jolly old England! Fun, but a perpetual bad hair day.

I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves despite the luggage hassles and the weather!

Sounds like you had an awesome trip to the UK. The next time I travel there on business, I am going to a pantomime.

You either live a charmed life or you tell a helluva story.

Or both!

Happy New Year to you and yours!

Ah. I miss London. I do wish I could take another long holiday there soon. Sigh.
More skiing! I hope that means more pics too! I love your skiing pics. :)

Was that cheese really good? It looks a little iffy in the wiki description!!

Glad you had such a nice time - I don't blame you for loving the roses!!

It sounds so lovely (except the luggage debacle, of course)! And raclette is so much fun!! My first experience was in Switzerland 10+ years ago, and although I don't have one myself, my parents bought one so I've enjoyed many more raclette dinners. Yummy!!

Have fun with the skiing. I'm jealous!

2008-01-03T10:04:00.000+01:00

Glad you had a lovely visit over here, in spite of the airline's oh-so-typically-lovely (not) customer service attitude.

The snow sounds pretty... they keep promising we'll be getting a bit over here today or tomorrow, but it won't be like you've got. Not even close.
