More adventures..

It's been so hard for me to stay on top of blogging. Not only does it take forever to upload pictures, but we have been doing too many fun things to keep track of them all. But we hope you enjoy following our adventures!!!

One of the funnier things we've done since we've been here.... Joey signed up for this website that gives tickets to different things around London. He got an email saying he had gotten free tickets to a taping of a gameshow called POINTLESS here in London. So of course, we had to go! It was actually pretty fun, and the game itself was cool. We got to sit in the audience and we had to clap and laugh on cue and everything, but it was fun to see the whole thing. It went on for a little too long, but we had fun. It was a special celebrity appearance show too, and we didn't really recognize most of them because they are well known just in London, but it was still entertaining. The point of the game was to guess which answer was the least likely to be given in any given category. It was fun to be a part of all of it and we had a blast.

Outside BBC Studios

We weren't supposed to take pictures, but we snuck one in anyway.

We loved going to Pointless!

We had a fun couple of days when everyone from the Hinckley Institute came into town. They were able to meet with all the interns MPs and we were able to do some fun things with them also. We went to dinner at a delicious Indian restaurant called Punjab, and it was fun to see everyone that Joey has been working with.

The next night we went to dinner with everyone again at this amazingly delicious Italian restaurant called PREZZO. Afterward we raced off to the theater to see the broadway show WE WILL ROCK YOU. It was fun one, the whole show was put to the music of Queen, and I recognized most of the songs. The story line was kind of weird, but we still had a grand old time. Thanks to everyone that was here, we had so much fun with you!!

We also went to the Victoria and Albert Museum this past week.

Again, there was a ton to see and we had a blast looking at everything.

Victoria and Albert Museum

After going to the museum, we decided to take a little stroll through Hyde Park. We've been there before briefly, but there is so much to see and do there and we went back to see some of the highlights. Plus the weather was great that day so we wanted to take advantage of it and walk around.

Princess Diana's home (her fountain is also here, but I already posted about it)

The Peter Pan Statue.

They sometimes have a little play of Peter Pan in the park,

but it's not going on yet this time of year. Dang.

The Rose Gardens.

They had benches and statues and fountains lining the whole rose garden.

So pretty, the flowers were gorgeous.

Beautiful bridge and river in Hyde Park.

As you can see, we've been doing a lot of fun things here in London. We are so lucky to have this opportunity, especially as newlyweds, and it has been such a fun experience. We are learning a lot about each other and having a blast, and falling in love with the city. There is no one I would rather be here with than Joey. I'm a lucky girl in too many ways to count. We love you all, and miss you so much!! XOXO!
