The International Mime Festival at Perigueux


We saw three female aerial performers do a mime/dance on ropes in the air.

More in France....



Click on the pictures to make them bigger and see how good the pool really looks!

What's been happening in France....






Lots of pictures here - mostly of the house and the new pool, showing Jim and Richard building the deck around it and how it looked when it was finished. It is the most beautiful place to swim - an idyllic view, and has salt water rather than chlorine. Also, there's a picture from the Perigueux mime festival.

Harry's bedroom on American Mother's Day - this is the BEFORE picture!! Will there be an AFTER?

We celebrated three birthdays: Grandma, Mum and Juliet.


We went to London to renew our passports at the US Embassy and had time to visit the British Museum as well. We saw the Rosetta Stone and the Sutton Hoo viking treasures; the American Gothic-style picture of us is taken in front of the Elgin Marbles

My IMVU character! :-)


IMVU is a 3D instant messaging chat program, and you can buy clothes made by people and accessories for your avatar. I have it set up so I got 5000 credits a month, so I can buy furniture and rooms to chat in like an Airship and a swimming pool! This picture is my character in a plain swimsuit in my pool treading water :D

Daffodils


Just as Wordsworth saw them...

More Lake District activities




Bronwen went pony trekking with Mum and Annie, while Harry did some clay pigeon shooting and archery.

Going Ape


We went to Go Ape in the Lake District, a high ropes course through the forest. Harry and Mum had been before but this was Bronwen's first time and she managed the Tarzan leap just fine. Here she's on one of the easy bits.

Another circus!




We went to the Chinese State Circus at the Grand Opera House in York.....not as spectacular as Cirque du Soleil, but fun. There were juggling chefs who were very funny, and flying warriors and a human chandelier and Chinese lions and dragons.

Deep Sea Imax


We went to the National Media Museum in Bradford, to see a 3-D Imax film - Deep Sea. The museum has exhibits on photography, film and television. We used a blue screen and Harry throttled a Teletubby.
Half-term is almost over and we go back to school next week.

Cirque du Soleil


Last weekend we went to Cirque du Soleil at the Royal Albert Hall in London. It was fantastic! Harry liked the fire juggling and the music, and Bronwen liked the acrobats and contortionists.
