Hampstead Gardens ( 28 photos )
On Sunday, all this running-around was beginning to take its toll on my 60-hour-a-week worked body, so it was decided that a nice leisurely stroll around the nearby Hampstead Gardens, which are a part of the massive Hampstead Heath was in order. Spring has come on amazingly fast here, with lots of pretty colours peeping through.
Of course, while we were there we had a fantastic lunch at the Bull and Bush pub, before feeling like little kids as we lined up for the Ice-Cream van. No, they aren't called Mr Whippy vans here.
Liz went for a walk again that afternoon, as I processed some photos, before we enjoyed dinner in.

A Move and Lots More ( 28 photos )
Ok, so seeing this hasn't been updated for quite a while, this is going to be a nice long section. Have you got a cup of tea next to you? (This is what happens when you are in England too long...you become addicted to tea, and you can't function without it.)

[ Liz's Mega-update has been split into the individual days ]

Our travel plans are currently moving along quite nicely. Our trip to Turkey is all booked and payed for, and we head off there in about a month. We are also in the middle of planning a trip to Amsterdam to meet up with Tim's friend Sebastian (he came out from Germany as an exchange student and went to Sydney Tech) and his girlfriend Jessi. As well as lots of getting to know each other, and seeing the sites of Amsterdam, Tim and I are trying to purchase a Kombi from a company near Amsterdam, and then drive it back to London. All of this stuff has to happen within a few days due to Tim's work, and we can't wait to get there and explore the place. At the moment, we are probably going to Amsterdam about the 11th, 12th and 13th of April, and coming home for a few days before heading off to Turkey.
So, how was all that? I have probably even left stuff out, and if so I'll add a bit more later on. Congratulations if you made it all the way to the end :)
