british accents & big, red buses.

our last stop on our european adventure..... LONDON.

this was round-two for me in london (two years later) and i loved it just as much this time around. it was fun to be surrounded by english again but in british accents, even better. we stayed with brion & bethany in chigwell who were far too kind to open their living room up to us. as i said it last time, i would love to live in london for some period of time in my life. maybe one day? these pictures about sum up our time in london:

the four months away from home was a huge success.

so many wonderful people met.

so much breath-taking scenery.

lots of history learned.

and memories that will never be forgotten.

we were forever changed.
