Just a quick update- we have to come back to this place, it's so amazing. We had such a fun time at Wimbledon, I was 1 foot from John McEnroe! And 4 feet from Venus and Serena Williams' dad. Too cool. We loved watching tennis with spectators from 100 other countries, so fun. I love eastern European females, they are hard core. Such competition and drama, more to come about this when we have more computer access. We've had fun living right off of Hyde Park, have seen a lot and went to a performance of Wicked last night, which was fabulous, I'm so glad we finally saw it. My favorite memory so far, apart from the tennis, is sitting outside the Princess Diana Memorial Playground, watching and listening to moms and little kids speak in tons of different languages, so cute, and on the tube, listening to Italian and Japanese teens speak to eachother in broken English.
We're exploring some more today and flying a red-eye to Athens, so we'll try to update you from there; our experiences will probably be quite different, seeing sports, gardens and culture here, and history and islands there:) Such a great trip so far!

Thanks for allowing me to vicariously experience places and events I'll never experience. Your enthusiasm and energy are jamming right across that big pond. xoxo
Having played a little tennis, I would have been really jazzed to see McEnroe. What fun to experience Wimbledon. Fresno State won the College World Series, did you see it? Talk soon, the P's
another thought-when should we leave Burlington if we do High Tea and buchardt gardens the same day. Where would we leave Wa. from and what time. Give us something to think about. BTW is this an OK place to ask this stuff?
What fun! It sounds like ya'll are having a wonderful adventure!
C- of course you can write on here. I'll write another update now:)
