Tastes of London town

Nothing says England like "fish and chips."

Kris is salivating over the red meat.

I wish they had markets with this much variety in Poland...

Starbucks! Mmm chai latte.

More fish and chips with our friend, Laura. These ones were really good!


Harrod's: where everything you want is nothing you need.

London town!

Changing of the Guard ceremony.

Our Beefeater guide at the Tower of London. One of the best parts of the trip!

Queen and King Jaje

At the Prime Meridian in Greenwich. Standing in each others' hemispheres.

Steelers hat, meet the other Big Ben.

Keeping warm

Our yard is full of love.


Two more tons of coal, to keep us warm this winter.


The coldest day of the year, and I had to go teach English. Long underwear was needed.


Our boxwood bush covered in snow.


Wearing the lamb-y side of his hat, and waiting for the train to Oswiecim.

Wishing that the cake will taste good. :)

Hanging out with Cyclops, one of the X-men. She helped make the cake.
