London, Stonehenge and Paris, oh my!
Hey hey!
Long time no blog, we know, but as we’re about to rush out for another day in Paris we thought we’d quickly bring you up to speed. The first of the photos are up, click through from any on the left hand side of the page and you can browse backwards. I’ll hopefully have them organised in sets and collections tonight and will post a link here when I do. As you can tell, the secret adventure...
A short summary of highlights and observations
So, yesterday we “did” London. To be specific, we got off the train at Westminter: wow. It’s kinda big. Initially, I thought the big bit was the Abbey, but it turns out that’s Big Ben and the houses of parliament.

We’re on a short time frame at the moment, so a longer post will come later but for now...
Help?
I’ve replaced the standard Last.FM widgit in this design with a Google Map where we will be tracking our progress. It works, but seems to have a habit of starting zoomed right in on Central African Republic. Anyone know how to get it to centre on one of our trip markers as a default?

5, 4, 3, 2, 1... BLAST OFF!
Greetings, true believers,
I write this with a number of things on my mind. Firstly, cerebrospinal fluid and layers of bone, skin and hair, but beyond that there are also intangible elements at play.
My packed suitcase lies in the other room, it’s currently 2:37 AM and we fly out at 5 PM today.
This blog will chonicle our adventures on our upcoming trip. Pictures uploaded to my Flickr...
