Kyle's European Vacation July 2010

Kyle's High School Graduation gift. A trip to England, Germany and Scotland. WOW... what a nice time we had. We are pretty sure Kyle will never forget this Adventure! Germany was spent in Munich, and Dachau, the Dachau Concentration Camp. St. Andrews, Scotland was the 2010 THE OPEN Golf Tournament. And, a tour of London. He was here for 2 weeks, and it was non-stop history and FUN!

Bournemouth/Poole

Memorial Day weekend we traveled 3 hours South, to a place on the English Channel coastline, a place called Bournemouth/Poole (stayed in Bournemouth and Poole is the 2nd largest Harbor in the world, Australia is first). We stayed at a Beautiful hotel on the Beach, and went to an Aquarium and did a lot of hiking.

Enjoying a Day in St. Neot's Town

St. Neot's is a beautiful town. We spent the day walking through the Parks and seeing some of the Churches, even by the Cemetery. We are at one of there local Pubs, which was right on the River. We also heard that May 22 and 23 were 2 of the warmest days they have had in over 10 years. Temperatures hit 82 Degrees; they don't usually see this until July or August (the British Gods know that we LOVE the SUN) : )
