Uncle Matt and Aunty Julie

Congratulations Steve and Jo, who have just had a beautiful baby girl, Madison Lee. We wish you all the best with your new addition to the family. Jade and Jasmin, I hope you guys are helping your Mum with the new baby, and are enjoying having a little sister.

Regent Street

The shot below is from a recent excursion down Regent St in Central London (taken at Picadilly Circus). Follow this link for more photos from Regent Street. Julie particularily likes this one as it shows off the really cool way the buildings curve around with the street.

Madame Tussauds

So we went on one of our first truly touristy adventures to Madame Tussauds!

We waited in the queue for about 45 minutes and once inside it was amazingly packed full of people. We wanted to take our photos with some of our favourite stars, but it was painfully difficult to arrange a shot. The models themselves ranged from amazingly accurate to a bit average, but overall the experience was well worth the wait in the queue.

Anyway, check out our gallery of photos for all the wax based stardom!

Hatton Garden

This is Hatton Garden - the Diamond District - as it is known. This is just outside of Sam and Eion's house. Click here to see the online album with more photos. Yes, it is wet, no surprises there :)

Welcome!

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to visit us!

The purpose of this "Northern Adventure" blog is to keep everyone up to date on our trials and travels around the UK and Europe. We will be updating photos, posting links to anything interesting we find and generally trying to keep a online journal of our adventures.

Obviously this project is still in its infancy, however we would love to hear any feedback or suggestions from our friends and family. Of course if you stumbled across this accidentally, please feel free to say "G'day" as all are welcome!
