Cambridge and Family Time!

Okay, we're going to break up the trip to England as well. Fulfilling a dream of our family's (we've been planning the trip since summer of '07 when we found out Keri's sister Kelli and her husband were moving to England for 3 years for Kelli to do a post-doctorate project at Cambridge University), Keri's whole family and we went to England together for 8 days from Dec. 26-Jan. 2. Pictures of our 2-day trip to London and a side trip to Ely are to follow, but the first few days while we recovered from jet-lag, we hung out in Cambridge. What a cool and quaint city! It was also so good to be together and see Nate and Dexter (nephews). We're so glad Keri's brother and sister-in-law took on the challenge of changing 8 hours time and flying 8 hour flights with a 1 year old and 3 year old. It was an incredible trip! I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!
C.J. excited about the personal video screens (that didn't work the whole way to London)
