Well I lied a bit this morning. We did have plans for today - the Diamond Jubilee flotilla! While we didn't actually see a single boat (the Brits really love their Royals), we had a blast walking through the crowds and
trying to see the river.

| Snap-happy Morgan... |
 |
| We still want our own Royal masks. I called dibs on Kate Middleton. |
 |
| India, Gage, and me |
 |
| We weren't quite that dedicated. Actually we just didn't think of it first. |
I also got a legit Diamond-Jubilee scarf with the Queen's face on it. I have to say, I rather think I appreciate the British expression of patriotism. Because they're so generally understated, their love for their country and its symbols and traditions seems all the more sincere.
