Christmas in England - Chester-le-Street

Finally arrived home after 2 days in London and marginally avoiding train delays due to a massive snow storm. Chester-le-Street was the same as always, and absolutely beautiful in the snow. It was fantastic to see the Grandparents and have a relaxing Christmas together.









Christmas in England - London

We spent a fantastic couple of days in the capital... it was damn cold, snowing, but we just missed the worst of it (cancelled flights etc). The kids loved seeing the sights, as you can see.

London Eye / Embankment / Waterloo




Winter Celebration at Six Flags

The best time to go to Six Flags... no crowds, lights everywhere, candy apples, hot cider and hot chocolate galore :)

At the local Applebees, our regular pre-Christmas celebration.
