Girls Overnight

Every Spring, Lanie and I go for an overnight away by ourselves.... it's special mommy/daughter time and a tradition that I hope will last, well, for a lifetime.  This year, we made a trip into London and went to see Wicked.  She loved it!  We stayed near the Tower of London and visited there today.  The Beefeater's tour was a bit too much information, so we wandered off by ourselves for the self-guided family tour.  I think that the highlight for both of us was going to see the crown jewels, where they had a video loop of Elizabeth II's coronation for viewing before going to see the actual crown - very cool since we are celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee (commemorating her 60 years of reign) in June.

Off to London!

We could see the Tower of London from our hotel.

Ending with ice cream - it didn't matter how chilly it was!
