We got off the plane a little (ok, A LOT) jet-lagged, but went straight to the hotel (more on that later) and dropped of our luggage. We took a 20 minute power nap (which some of us enjoyed a little too much) and then headed out to see the city!

| There aren't phones in these anymore, they're just left out for show. I think they're awesome! |

| Hollyhocks! I can't see these without thinking of my Grandma, Helen Bell. |
 |

| Loved these big, huge trees! Not a lot of that size around in San Antonio! |

| Walking around the city and look what we ran into!!! Met some sweet sister missionaries and one older missionary, Bro. Ohman, played the organ for us. Of course, when you narrow down the "do you know so-and-so list" through the church and through those with a doctorate in organ, your chances of making a connection are pretty high. Yes, this man knows my uncle, Neil Harmon. Pretty small world. |

| A stop in the visitors center was a real treat. |
 |
| This is Brett's forced smile, if you cant tell. This was all different pieces of marble on display at the museum of natural history. Pretty cool. |

| Scars from a blast during WWII are still visible at the Victoria and Albert Museum. |
