The Griswold European Vacation: Part One

Clark and Ellen don't have nothin on Elton and Nancy. These two know how to travel!

First, props to pops for surviving his first transatlantic flight. The first stop of course was London, where they stepped off the plane and right onto the hodel walking tour.

It took some time, but with some enlisted help...

I was able to make the London streets safe for my mom:

Just some highlights on the tour:

Quote of the trip No.1:

"Look, that gnarly tree is growing straight up out of the ground!"
The Number 1-4. That's how we roll.
Next up, a little fun with the fam.

And, as they say in Boston, hasta la vista.

After the Easter celebrations it was back to Putney for... The Race. Cambridge vs Oxford. The smart vs. the smarter. The blue vs the bluer. The man vs the river.... and man vs a giant vat of sausages. A man vs a man on stilts. A corona bottle vs a strong gust of wind.

From there it was on to Fulham. They may have lost on the day to Man City, but cheers to the craven cottage boys for avoiding relegation.

And cheers to mom and pops for navigating The Tower, St Pauls and Windsor all on their own!

But man were they tired...

Hey, no rest for the weary... up next, Caen, France.
