England - Feb '12

The start of a big adventure! Flying into Birmingham we had a chance to visit a few people before heading off into France. Great catching up with a lot of people not seen for many years.

'In transit' Sorry, this was about as exciting as it got for 24 hours. Emirates really not that bad at all though smile

Tuesday 7 February 2012

Some had said that the Emirates 777 would be a bit cramped, but really, where's the problem? wink 4 seats each. Nice smile

Sunrise in Wimbledon. Not bad for the big city.

Visit to 'The Vyne', a 16th century country house. Nice, but a bit large. Think we'd rather have the smaller one smile
