Tonia and Jim Wall:  Moving to England

Just a few pics of interesting things.   

7/7/07 -- Some of you can relate to this sign.
7/7/07 -- English beer is not our friend. Irish cider, on the other hand...
7/9/07 -- This is Fred. He's our jumpy little friend. Too much coffee.
7/21/07 -- Mind that Child? Is that like Minding the Gap?
7/21/07 -- Frederick Duke of York. Overcompensation for something?
7/21/07 -- Stinky horse with fat kid.
7/21/07 -- Look really, really, really close. There's a little sign on the wall saying Downing Street. You'd think they could afford a bigger sign.
7/21/07 -- Funky old church. Westminster Abby, I think.
7/21/07 -- Bunch of blokes. Leave it to my wife to find drinking buddies in downtown London!
7/28/07 -- Scary stares. I've only fallen down them twice, though.
