This summer I decided I wanted to do flowers on my railing.  I took my pots to Diamond Green house in Springville, and am very happy with the results.  It has been fun watering them every morning and having some pretty to look at.

I can't remember what city this cathedral was in, but it was huge.

Another shot of the cathedral.

Another Palace in London. This was taken on our last night after we were done with the tour.

Amy in front of a statue of one of their queens.(I'm not sure if it is past or present queen)

We were walking through a park and this squirrel surprised us by jumping out of a trash can with a McDonald's fry container.     
These are the last of the pictures I took.  This trip was an amazing experience, hopefully I will be able to continue to see the world.

"That's it".  Our tour guide was telling us that he took a group of high school students to Stonehenge once and they were not impressed.  I though it was pretty neat.  Of course we only saw it from a distance.  We didn't have enough time to pay and actually go up to it and see it up close.  If you look closely at the picture you can see the droid people who were there touring.


It was very windy and cold.

This was taken in the city of Bath. The cathedral is in the back ground.

Another shot of the Cathedral.

The river in Bath.

The bridge in Bath.

Me in front of the bridge in Bath.

See the boat going under the bridge.

I took the next two pictures for Monica.  This little tea parlor was next to our bus stop. It was so cute, but we didn't eat there because it was too crowded.

Cute Alice in Wonderland themed tea parlor.  Look how cute the chairs are.

In the city of Bath we walked around looking for a bank/ATM because it was our last chance to exchange money or in my case get money to tip our tour guide(who was wonderful by the way).  I wish we would have taken care of that sooner so we would have had time to go into the Roman Baths.  Oh well we still saw a lot of the beautiful city. We even walked down and saw Jane Austens place where she stayed while in Bath. They didn't really have it marked so I didn't take any pictures.  My favorite thing from Bath was the bridge.  After we walked around we went and got a pastry for lunch then went into a candy shop.  It was such a cute little place.

In the library at Cardiff Castle.

Outside of Cardiff Castle in Wales.

Amy and me locked up!

Some of the carvings inside Cardiff Castle.

In Wales we went to Cardiff Castle and toured then had a traditional Welsh Banquet.  They served us food that was tradition for the King to eat.  I was surprised that I liked everything. I have some videos, but I'm having trouble down loading them I'll try again later.  There was some really good Welsh entertainment.

Ashley, Amy and me at T & H Doolans Pub.


Getting at drinks at the pub.

In Waterford we signed up to do a pub/walking history tour.  Well the rain stopped those plans, we ended up going to the pub and watching some football/soccer since we were there during the European Cup.  What do you get when three Mormon girls go into a pub?  Three girls that order pop! The pub we went to was Waterford's oldest tavern.  They hard dollars from all over the world posted on their walls.  Our tour guide ended up telling us about the city in the pub, the walking tour was rained out. I guess when you go to Ireland you should just expect it to rain, so take a good umbrella.
