The UK Pavilion
 Each one of those plastic spikes has a rare (or almost extinct)
 seed at the end of it.  From the inside of the building you can see each individual seed up close.

Everyone wanted their picture taken with us!

My littlest sister really missed me the whole trip, she was so glad to see me when I got back! She would follow me around all day, as if I would disappear or something.
  Sisters are the best :-)

Photos from England

Stonehenge My dad and I went along with a tour group from the US to learn more about the history of Operation Tiger. We got to meet two American veterans who also came to England. I learned the history of Operation Tiger which I had not been aware of before. This year is the 70th Anniversary of Operation Tiger.
