A Visit to Greenwich

The highlight of the past month was our visit to Greenwich. We took a short tube ride to Greenwich in southeast London for Bryan to run the Run to the Beat Half Marathon. After Bryan ran his personal best of 1:25:51, we walked around Greenwich Park and the town. In the middle of the park is the Prime Meridian, the point that divides the eastern and western hemispheres. I insisted on getting my picture taken with one foot in each hemisphere. Makes the four corners seem insignificant!
The boys are growing quickly, changing everyday. Jacob has now learned how to say truck and milk. He loves to play with trains and cars. Christian is making lots of friends at his new school. He has swimming lessons on Wednesdays and football on Sundays.
Another new development is the weather--fall has arrived! It has been ten years since we have experienced real fall weather. It's the one thing I've always missed from Missouri. We are wearing long sleeve shirts already. In Louisiana, we'd still be in flip flops!

  1. Do you mean what we American's call soccer? Weather is cold and wet here in the midwest!
