Our First Weekend as Londoners

We have had a wonderfully busy first weekend in London!  Matthew, Marguerite and I are quickly settling into life in the quaint neighborhood of Southfields.  During our first two days, we have explored lush Wimbledon Park, strolled along the Thames, introduced Marguerite to Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace, and enjoyed several beautiful parks.  Here are some snapshots from our first few days...enjoy!
