Palace at the Tour of London










Idan was excited to see the tower bridge since he saw it in Peter Pan.








White tower at tower of London

Idan loved the knights at the tower of London. He said he didn't want to be Buzz Lightyear anymore for Halloween, he now wants to be a knight.













We went to Bath. Here we are visiting the ancient Roman Baths.

Pulteney Bridge in Bath


Jamison wanted to visit the Temple Church from the Da Vinci Code. Unfortunately, it is only open for a couple hours a day, so we didn't get to go inside. It is really hard to find since it is in a huge locked courtyard.














At Windsor Castle, we had Idan take a picture with a guard. He cried after because he was afraid of him.

Idan was so excited to see the Peter Pan statue.
















We had the best sundaes ever at Harrods.










Idan had to see Big Ben at night, just like it looks on the movie Peter Pan.











We visited Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens on our way to see Buckingham Palace

Buzz Lightyear

Idan went to a drop off birthday party last weekend. It was a costume party. Idan is Buzz Lightyear.
















Here is Idan and his friend Tanisha on the Metro after the party.

Musee de Science et Industrie

We went to the Science Museum. They have a special area just for 3-5 year olds. Idan loved it. Here he is in the building area.




















Idan's first trip to the planetarium was at this museum. Both him and Jamison fell asleep during the show.














The museum was having some kind of special event to get people to join.

They had performers all over the main hall area. They had over a dozen of these painted people walking around. Men and women naked except for their thong underwear. Each one was painted in different colors. We were the only ones there that seemed to be suprised about the naked people.













Disney Halloween

Idan had off from school last week, so Roni and him went to Disneyland. The park was decorated for Halloween.



They had Halloween face painting for all the children.



They had a pinata. These pumpkin men helped children knock it down.




























Idan cried when Jamison cleaned the pumpkin off of his face. He wanted to go to bed with it on.









They had multiple Halloween parades throughout the day.









Idan and Donald dressed up like the devil.

Conciergie

On Sunday, we visited the Conciergie. They had childrens activites in the main hall that day. They closed for lunch, so we visited the flower market nearby. Here is Idan feeding one of the rabbits there.











Here is Idan walking on stilts at the conciergie.














The outside of the conciergie.










































A guillotine














Marie Antoinette's prison cell.










Outside the Pompidou, this guy stands still, until you give him money. Idan was scared of him.














Jamison had his friends from work over for dinner. Rezart (from Albania), Shawn (from Canada), and Rodrigo (from Brazil) is Idan's favorite. Not pictured, Gregoire, from France.
