London for the weekend

Matt and I flew off to London for our Thanksgiving long weekend. We had a great time. It wasn't too cold or rainy. We were lucky enough to see sunshine most of our trip which isn't common for the UK. Our hotel was 2 blocks from Buckingham Palace and no more than 5 to Westminster Abbey. We enjoyed 2 days exploring the downtown and then one day on a tour to Hamilton Court Palace (home of King Henry VIII), Stonehenge, and Bath. Hope you enjoy the pictures, there definately was a lot to see!!

Our room at the Crowne Plaza London- St James

Our New Baby

After much waiting and Matt's eager anticipation, our new baby has arrived...our 2013 BMW 328i.
Matt needed a new and reliable car here in Germany and the deal was just too good to pass up. We had a special coating added to both the exterior and interior to keep her show quality for the next 10 years. Cilajet is a really neat product..you can learn more about it here:Cilajet

Enjoy some pictures we took of our new car..that I have named Veronica :)

Notice my reflection in the paint..thats the Cilajet!
