Alex's Birthday Treat

This year, Alex didn't want a present...she didn't want a party...she wanted a visit to the empire! Of course, this obviously was such a hardship on my part...

We lounged by the pool, went bowling and saw a film of Alex's choice - "Hunger Games".  She thoroughly enjoyed the film although seemed pretty outraged about how much they had cut from the original book :-)

Mum enjoyed the couple of days we spent there, although always a danger she will become accustomed to such surroundings!

One funny thing that happened...we were standing at the desk waiting to check in (there was somebody in front of us) and a group very rudely came and stood in front of us.  I was just about to do the very British 'excuse me, do you know there is a queue?' when I noticed the security guards and ladies in waiting...it was the Royal Family!  Glad I held my peace....don't fancy being deported!
