Well, we are currently in Jolly Ole England!  In a painfully bad tribute to the place, I've made the background.....  GRAY!

We are currently staying with Matthew's Mum and Step-Father, Brian.  They have a beautiful home and are absolutely wonderful.  I  met them both in '95 when Matthew and I popped in on our way to Greece, so it is great to see them again.   Probably the best part is seeing Matthew's Mum read him the riot act about "growing up sometime soon" :-)  Oh, and the wonderful sarcasm that all Brits seem to be born with just fits in with my style.  Here is a photo of their home, which is darling.

I guess the biggest accomplishments up to this point have been actually arriving here and buying the camper van.  Since Matthew officially signed the papers yesterday, which was the last day of September, you will just have to look here to see a picture of it :-) 

Today our big To Do item was to get insurance on the van, and here is a picture of Matthew signing and carefully reading all the Large Words That Resist Comprehension.
