Life in London


Hi everyone,

Sorry we haven't written in awhile. Things have been busy but nothing too noteworthy to report. Of note, however, is that Sarah got a job! Yes, it only took 8 weeks for her license to be approved but the following day she had a job! She is working 3 days a week at a pediatric outpatient facility of a NHS hospital just outside of London. Her commute is 90 minutes each way (yikes!) which makes her very happy to be only working 3 days a week :o)

Shane has been working hard and traveling a little. His most recent business trips took him to Amsterdam and Norway. He, of course, forgot the camera on both trips but was able to take in the sights although he has nothing to prove it.

Last Saturday we hopped in the car (which Shane is now very adept at driving) and headed for Windsor castle. It is about 20 miles outside of London and a pretty easy drive. Windsor castle has been the home of the royal families of England for 900 years! It is quite impressive and looks much more "castle-like" than Buckingham. The current Queen of England has declared Windsor her official residence. Unfortunately she was not in last weekend, I guess she hadn't heard that we would be visiting :o)

Anyway, that is all for now. We are hoping to hit up a few more English cities in the upcoming weeks and we will definitely keep you all posted. Hope everyone is doing well!

Love, Sarah and Shane
