England

Hey Zach,  well May was a pretty exciting month for Jeff and me. It had been  14 years since you, Cody and I went to visit England and now it was Jeff’s turn to meet the family across the pond. The weather was spectacular the entire time. First we spent time in Belgium with Jeff‘s brother and his girlfriend and then took the euro star train under the English Channel back to London where we toured for a few days and saw  actors Helen Mirren and Sir Ian McKellan on a train platform on the way back from touring Windsor Castle!  They were filming a movie and the crew was on our train platform, it was awesome. We then headed north to Oxford and on to Birmingham where we spent three awesome days with uncle Barrie, his girlfriend Janet and your cousins. After that it was off to the Cotswolds and Bath for more site seeing.  We then headed back to London for a couple of days of shopping before catching our plane back home. It was an amazing trip and brought back a lot of memories of when we went touring around the English countryside together. I remember a picture we took outside of William Shakespeare’s home as well as the day we spent at Warwick Castle. Bittersweet now, but I am so glad we had the opportunity to go. Maybe someday if we reunite we can head back for another trip and I can see things again through your eyes. I miss you so much Zachary and I hope all is well in your life.

Love always,

Mom
