Leidschendam, The Netherlands - 14th June 2008
By: Charda
Last Thursday my host went to do some last shopping before the vacation and I tagged along! Well, most of the time I spent in her bag, but we did stop for a cup of coffee. Here you can see it.
Today a new TV arrived! He's a little dog and his name is Moony! He is just in time for our trip to London, so he's a very lucky guy!
Here's our group picture. Well, tomorrow we're going to pack and then on Monday we'll be flying to England! How exciting!

London, England - 20th June 2008
By: Charda
On Thursday we only visited Westminster Abbey, but we weren't allowed to take any pictures there, so there's just this picture of the Big Ben of that day.
On Friday we went to the Tate Britain museum. Again, we weren't allowed to take any pictures there, so there's just this picture.
In the afternoon we went to the Museum of London. This is me outside the museum. I know it says 'Useum of London', but the 'M' is just hidden behind the tree
After our visit to this museum we walked to St. Paul's Cathedral. It was really close by. We didn't go in though, so we only took these pictures from the outside.
When we came home (in the hotel) that afternoon my host wanted to take pictures of the hotel room, and of course we wanted to be on these pictures. This is us in the bathroom.
The bathtub looked really big and comfortable, but since I'm a dog, I didn't want to go in there, even without the water. Maybe some other time...
Our host Charda found this British bear in a souvenirshop and she decided to adopt him. He was all right, a bit posh maybe.
Our last group picture in England!
On Saturday we flew back home to the Netherlands, to our host's home that is of course. This is me on the train from Paddington Station to London Heathrow Airport.
The plane on this next picture isn't our plane, because we were inside ours, but it was of the same airline.
And this is the view from the airplane while in the air. Cool huh, all those clouds.
So now we're back in the Netherlands. As you can see, we had a great time in England!

Leidschendam, The Netherlands - 22nd June 2008
By: Charda
Okay, here's a really short update. All of us have arrived safely in the Netherlands today. We had a great week in London and we have seen quite a few famous landmarks. Our host says she'll update the pictures within a few days, but that might take a while, because there are so many
Here's all of us in the hotel room. We'll talk later!
Ps: I do have a picture of me with the Gherkin. It's not the best picture ever, because we didn't come that close, but it's a nice picture anyway.

Today we had a typical Dutch meal: andijviestamppot with bacon and cheese. It looks good, doesn't it?

Today was my last day in the Netherlands. It was a sad day for me, because I really had a great time here, but they all assured me that my next host will be just as kind and will also take very good care of me.
This was the last thing I saw before I entered the envelope.
Now I'm off to my new host!
