New Year's London

Here's some pics from New Year's
We had a hard time getting the both of us and the fireworks to show up. This was the best we got. Yes, I'm wearing glowing bunny ears and Tess has on a pink blinking cowboy hat.
This is a little better for the fireworks. Still not great though. You can kinda make ou the "Eye of London" So much better in person but isn't that always the case?

This is just another pic of us together. Its at Windsor castle again.
Wes on ice. I'm in a giant ice cube at the Ice Bar.
The New Year's crew at the Ice Bar. The entire bar is made of ice. The bar itself, the walls, the seats, even the glasses they serve your drinks in are blocks of ice.

More London

It worked last time so I figured I had better get some more pics on here before it screws up.
Big Ben. Not the best pic but it was the best we could do from the bus.
We got to see the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace. htey aren't as colorful in the winter dress but it was still cool to see.
Just thought this looked funny. Thats both a really large set of armor and a really little set.
Front enterance of Windsor Castle. This is where the queen spends her downtime.
Tess with the "Beef-eaters" at the towers.

London

Hello everyone. I know its been a while. I finally got the blogger to come up in english again. Don't know what I did but its working. Tess and I went to London for New Year's. We had a good time but the exchange rate is outrageous. Anyway, here's a few pics. Maybe more later.
London bridge shot from the London towers.
Stare-down with one of the Tower's birds. He started to sharpen his beak so I got outta there. These birds are actually the pets of the towers. Their wings are clipped so the won't leave. This tradition comes from back in the day when the occupants watched the birds because they believed that if the birds could be killed, the castle could be over-run.

Tess with "Fez" from "The Seventies Show" and MTV's "Yo Mamma" at the enlisted club here on Ramstein. He came to do a show for the troops and visit some soilders. I met him as well but no pics since I was at work. He was a real good guy and seemed to enjoy visiting with our patients at the CASF.
