Just in time to kick off Christmas! A trip to London for some sight-seeing on Saturday, then joining the BUNACers for Leeds Castle and Rochester Dickens Village. What fun! I met some great BUNACers from Vancouver Canada to spend the day with. All in all, a lot of fun!
I've added some pictures of Cheltenham at Christmastime too. Festive tidings! |

The Christmas tree in front of the House of Parliament, London. It's not snow, but flashes of rain sure look pretty. |

BUNACers conquer the maze! Outside Leeds Castle, Shirla, Melissa, Lori, and Melissa. |

Dickens Village in Rochester - a wonderful street festival with mulled wine, mince pies, and roasted chestnuts. Lots of Dickens characters dressed up with carollers in the street. |

The original house which Dickens used for the basis of Miss Havisham's manor in Great Expectations. |

Cassie and I went to see the town Christmas lighting earlier. Here we are in the Regent Arcade mall with a huge walk-through tree. |
