Bubble?





Hey everyone!!!(Mike, Melany, Adelle, Phil, Dave, Lance, Kelli, Eli, Eve, Isaac, Darin, Danna Lynn, Kyle, Steve, Virginia, and Iris)

Greetings from London once again. First of all, we miss you guys. And we also miss America. So many things we miss. Nicole especially misses cherry nibs. I especially miss driving. But we are still enjoying ourselves and soaking up as much of the new culture as we can.

This morning we strolled down to Portabello Market, which is the most famous market in London. Everything is ridiculously overpriced and oversaturated with tourists, but if you can get past that, it makes for a joyful experience. Basically, they line the streets for about 3 miles with vendors selling everything from old antique footballs to magnifying glasses. When you come to visit, we'll be sure to take you there. We also went to Burrough Market a couple days back, where we ate this traditional breakfast food called Bubble. Essentially, this was potatoes and cabbage cooked up in a frying pan all mashed together and not very appetizing to the eye, but we went ahead and ate it anyway.

It's great seeing all of your fun adventures. We love you and think about you all of the time.


Cheers from London.
