A glorious October day by the fountain in Trafalgar Square. Of course, here’s what we really want to do:
And this:
All this before sitting down for a snack of raisins in front of Nelson’s Column:
And then riding the double decker bus home:
Looking at these photos I realize how long it’s been since we were in London. I’m getting very excited to plan our adventure there this summer.
I share these pictures as part of Photo Friday at Delicious Baby. Have a great weekend!





I've taken with my children and those I want to take. Explore and you'll find family travel tips, information about vacation destinations, and lots of stories about our adventures! 









Seeing these makes me think those ‘toddler travel’ moments. Now my kids are almost 5 & 7,and I think back about why I carted them around so young. But then the other day they mentioned wanting to head out on a trip, and I was inspired by their attitude. “Hey, so do I! Can I tag along?” If we can give them an appreciation for exploring, at least we’ve gotten one thing down.
Great photos of London.

Can’t wait to hear about your return this summer. It will be fun to see what things stand out for them on your upcoming trip, although I bet they will still love running and leaning dangerously into fountains
Have you guys watched the Little Travelers DVD of their adventures in Great Britain? It’s one of our favorites.
I agree with Lorraine … so glad we have all made the effort to travel with our kids at such young ages. Although they may not remember all the details, I really think those early experiences foster curiosity, an adventurous spirit, an interest in other cultures, and hopefully a life long love of travel.
Oh!! Don’t you love looking back at the old trip photos?
I just did that for our Thailand trip as we plan our Summer trip to Thailand.
Great pictures! I think every child is fascinated by two things: water and running! Looks like you had a great time.

You are going to have such a blast this summer. I’m looking forward to reading your posts + see your photos already!

Hi! I followed you from Photo Friday:) The top photo is just gorgeous, and you can just tell what a beautiful fall day it is.
My kids are getting to the age (14,13,11) where they have actually said they “don’t want to go” occasionally. It’s like a knife in my heart:)
It’s nice to meet you,
