Esher, England
Church yards can be amazing, particularly in Europe where their cemeteries are located in the yard of the church. I loved walking around this church yard, looking at some of the interesting grave stones.

London, England
After seeing WICKED, an awesome play, we walked to a restaurant for dinner and passed this really cool clock at Victoria Station. It is situated close to the theater where HAMILTON is playing. Sadly, HAMILTON is booked out and has been for months. A few days after taking this photo, we were on a tour of London and the cab driver, Michael, told us that the name of this clock is Little Ben. It was erected in 1892 and was a gift from France. It mimics the famous clock tower, Big Ben.

Lucca, Italy
After a long, but great drive from Zagreb, Croatia, we made it to Lucca, Italy. Lucca is the birthplace of Craig’s grandfather. Lucca has an ancient wall, (completed in the 13th century) that surrounds it’s historic center, like all cities of it’s time, but this is one of the best preserved in Europe. In the 1800’s, the top of the wall was planted with trees and grass turning it into a huge park, it is a pleasant place to walk or ride a bike and it is the only wall in Europe where a car can drive all the way around the top of it. Lucca was founded by the Etruscans and became a Roman colony in 180 BC.

Gothenburg, Sweden
When we arrived in Gothenburg 2 1/2 months ago, it was cold and rainy, now it is still rainy, though not quite as cold! So, once again I put my feet up and RELAXED! Having said all that, the next day it was sunny and warm and the figure on the horse, yes the statue, had a scarf on!
