Sam update.

Sam is in Europe for 3 weeks. He took my camera so pictures will be low on my blog page.
I might as tell the world how it has been going.
Communication back and forth is sketchy at the best.
one email.
Until today, His leader called to say there has been some "monkey business" going on.
Monkey business = itching powder, excessive running, and jumping off of walls in a 1000 year old castle.
I needed to talk to him and tell him to settle down. Hard to discipline when I would have done the same in his circumstances.
So far in one week they,
Visited John F Kennedy Memorial in Runnymede.
Walked and sight see London,
Changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace,
Had a medieval lunch,
Explore the Tower of London (an old prison),
Meet the Beefeater guards,
A cruise on the Thames River,
Dinner theater watching The Lord Of The Rings,
Meet members of the Parliament,
Ride on the London Eye (worlds largest Ferris wheel @ 443 feet),
Visit Covent Garden with street performers,
Stay with a local Family for a few days to eat local food and do what the locals do,
Visit Statford-upon-Avon (home of Shakespeare),
Spend the night in a tented medieval village on the grounds of Warwick Castle, have free roam of the castle all night, Launch the worlds most powerful Catapult, AND repel off of the castle walls.

ALL THIS IN THE FIRST WEEK!

Shits are in.


Sorry it has been so long for an update.
Work has been off the chain. I'm lucky if I get home before 9 or 10 at night.
Sam took off yesterday for Europe with the People to People program. He will be gone for 3 weeks. He is going to England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Not a bad trip for a 13 year old.
If anyone wants a shirt just call 772-283-7222.
