The summer that was! (sigh) Part One

Whenever the first day of October rolls around, I start to reminisce about the summer that was. And WHAT a summer it was! Some alternate names for this post were 
-The Ahluwalias take on Europe
-Europe will never been the same
-The boys break something at Buckingham Palace
OR 
-Julian makes the no fly list!
Our first 'big' trip started at the end of June. The first stop on our trip was London. We've got lots of friends and family there, so as you can imagine the boys were spoiled rotten as soon as they stepped on British soil :)
One of the first things I realized after about 20 minutes in the air ... my boys are much better flyers than their Mom. Within minutes of being on board they were fighting for the window seat, flirting with the flight attendants like mini Don Drapers, and deciding what to watch on their tv sets...

We all got to stay with Gurjeet's wonderful aunt and uncle in South Hall-which they loved. Naveen made himself at home right away...

Then it was off to high tea ...

The next day it was off to Buckingham Palace with some super fun cousins. They got to meet a proper British 'bobby', see the changing of the guard, feeding the birds at the park

And their all time favourite thing to do on the trip that they are STILL waxing poet about-the double decker bus!!

Some of us reaaaaally thought it was a smooth ride :)
