UK Road Trip: My favorites


I know my posting has been out of control. I am only posting all of our trip stuff for the sake of keeping track of what we did. In all honesty, the best cathedrals, the cutest towns, and best sites didn't make our best days. Our best days were when we all were happy and spending time together. Our best days on the trip were seeing Livvy and Jude happy and experiencing new things through Livvy's eyes. Here's a list of my favorite things on our trip:

- A full English breakfast included in our hotels. It wasn't like your normal hotel continental breakfast. Oh no, we had to be seated at our table and then go get the crazy-good breakfast. I think it tasted better because I didn't have to cook anything!

- Livvy and Jude going swimming in the hotel indoor pool.



-Eating fish n'chips at Conwy and becoming a believer. Seriously people, I might drive 4 hours to eat those puppies again!


-Seeing Lincoln at his prime in tour guiding. 


-Ordering pizza to our hotel in rainy Scotland and having Livvy eat half of it in one sitting.



-Watching "Britain's Got Talent" as a family and Lincoln and Livvy loving every minute of it.


-Finding Livvy's "sleeping" toys in every hotel cupboard and drawer.


-Seeing countless yellow fields out the window of the passenger seat. 





-Feeling oh so proud that we did it! We changed diapers in the trunk of the car, had naps on the go and survived 8 days of road tripping with an (almost) 3 year old and 9 month old! Thanks for the great trip, honey!
