86/365



We went back to Virgina Water today to take Mirra for a nice walk and finally saw the famous 100 foot totem pole that was apparently given to the Queen by British Columbia in 1958 to celebrate the BC's 100th birthday. Liz gets all the cool gifts!

85/365


A bit of confusion in the Camberley parking garage... One sign tells you to "pay and display" (your ticket showing you've paid to park), while the other one tells you to take your ticket with you... could they not have removed the old sign when putting up the new one!?

84/365: Mirra's First Night Out!

A dream came true tonight when we took Mirra to the Rose and Thistle for her first night out at the pub. In true Mirra fashion, she was unimpressed and slept for the majority of the night (which is good since I thought she would be pretty nervous)....

...but she even managed to capture the heart of one of Britain's finest...

83/365: Guy Fawkes Day

Today was Guy Fawkes Day where all the Brits celebrate the day when Guy Fawkes tried to blow up Parliament, with fireworks and bonfires. Guy failed and sadly, we failed too in our celebrations and did nothing at all. :(

I love this traffic light sytem used for marking food. I makes it so easy to see at a glance how healthy something is... this bag of chocolate covered raisins, with its 2 red lights, clearly isnt very healthy. Luckily they werent very good either, so I didnt eat very many.

I didn't take a picture today, but when I turned on my camera to look for others, I saw that David took this lovely one of a random woman on TV. Good enough!

79/365


We went to Virginia Water today, which is great for dogs since leash laws do not apply and everyone just lets their dogs run around. They were swimming in the lake, rolling in the leaves, chasing eachother and making me very nervous that they would get seperated from their owners! We tried to get Mirra to pose in front of the waterfall... this was easier said than done, however there was another dog there wh was very willing to jump in front of the camera everytime I pointed it at Mirra. Another lovely weekend day for the Hendersons x 3 :)
