This weekend in addition to the Notting Hill, TV, dinner, etc. Burr and I got tickets to view the state rooms at Buckingham Palace. These rooms are only open to the public for a couple months during the summertime. So we took advantage. They gave us those audio head sets when you walk in and for me are a MUST. Otherwise I just wander around with no idea what I'm looking at. Some of the rooms were absolutely amazing. My favorite might have been being able to see the Queen's amazing wardrobe she wore to different countries. Very cool. The other amazing thing was Princess Victoria re-decorated a couple rooms at the Palace and she came up with the idea of "branding" her monogram into the wood floors. It was so cool. She even had it above the pictures frames and doorways. but the floors were the best. I told Burr when we move back I want a big AMF pasted all over the wood floors - wouldn't that be awesome?!
Here is a pic of Burr and me on the grounds at the Palace yesterday
Ugh, tomorrow is Monday which means we have to go to work again. Why can't I just live in London and not have to work? I like the traveling, etc.!
So...big news. Burr and I booked our big anniversary/big trip of the year. We are going to Split, Croatia and also Hrav, Croatia for a couple days as well! I'm SO excited. We love the beach and resorts so this will be perfect for us! http://www.hvarinfo.com/ is the website in case you want to look at pics of where we are going to. Yeah for us. We are also in the midst of booking other trips including (1) Durham to visit my sorority sister, Barb Karl-Hasty for the weekend and (2) Venice - where Brooke and Ayden Meyer are coming for vacation. They are actually doing all of Italy and Burr and I are just meeting them for a couple days. If anyone else is going anywhere in Europe let us know we would love to meet you somewhere.
Hope all is well
Anne (and Burr)
