The Burches in Britain: March 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Saturday, 12 March 2011. Spring has been a long time coming, but I believe it's finally here. The sun is coming up earlier as the days are getting longer. The blue skies are even peeking through the clouds to let us know they are there. I thought I'd share some of the color that has painted streets, parks, and yards here. The flowers of late winter and early spring occupy places in our hearts well out of proportion to their size.". Gertrude S. Wister. Friday, 4 March 2011. Break" ...

The Burches in Britain. Thursday, 1 September 2011. Mimi, Kevin, and cousins Michael. Boat ride one evening. Next it was on to Prague, where again, we were thankful for the recommendations of friends who had previously lived in the city and knew where to go and what to do. (Thanks April and Emily! Petrin Tower (aka "Little. Eiffel Tower", deja vu? Monument to Jan Hus in Old Town Square. Arbeit Macht Frei" above the entrance. Translated "Work Brings Freedom". Krakow Medieval Square and Market.

The Burches in Britain: April 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Monday, 25 April 2011. London: Attractions, Museums, Culture. The Houses of Parliament. Home of the Crown Jewels). Victoria and Albert Museum. Wimbledon Lawn and Tennis. The Eagle and Child. You can't come to London and miss out on some traditional English culture including a meal at the local pub and a phone call from a red telephone booth. The Royal wedding has also gained loads of attention which is quite evident. Our time with Rusty and Corey was wonderful! A virgin shall conc...

The Burches in Britain: A few of our favorites
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011/09/few-of-our-favorites.html
The Burches in Britain. Saturday, 24 September 2011. A few of our favorites. Ali, Tristan, and Joey. Irene, me, and Sharon. Me, Hayden, Rona. Rona and Hayden were our neighbors. They brought us tea when we moved in and also when we moved out. They took care of mail and groceries when we weren't home to receive them and they even trusted me to watch their cat a couple of times when they were out of town. We were really fortunate to have such kind and friendly neighbors! 24 September 2011 at 20:43.

The Burches in Britain: January 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Saturday, 29 January 2011. This might be one of my favorite posts, because food is one of my favorite subjects. When we moved here, I thought our food selection would be primarily comprised of English pubs and middle eastern restaurants. Although this is true (I may have an entire post on just the names of the pubs I've seen so far! I've noticed a variety of eateries. We Americans have our Burger King, Domino's, Subway, McDonalds, Starbucks, and KFC. McDonald's and Starbucks Coffee.

The Burches in Britain: July 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Thursday, 28 July 2011. View from our B&B. Taken early in the morning. Switzerland is an amazing country with majestic mountains and vineyard-filled valleys. My vocabulary was suddenly diminished to, "wow", "ahh", and "gorgeous". This might not be so surprising to you (especially after viewing the pictures we took), but I've been before and I was still. The storms a comin'. View from our room). View toward the center of Bern. At the top of the gondola ride. Saturday, 16 July 2011.

The Burches in Britain: June 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Sunday, 26 June 2011. Pubs - Round Two. In the village of Hawkshead (the "Lake District") had the best food from the traditional fish and chips and sticky toffee pudding to scallops and cheesecake! Outdoor seating at Queens Head. Is where Kevin and I watched the Royal Wedding (until the sounds of making sword/flower/animal balloons became too much to bear). We have thoroughly enjoyed the pub experience with all of our guests. Saturday, 25 June 2011. The All England Club. St George...

The Burches in Britain: February 2011
http://burchesinbritain.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
The Burches in Britain. Friday, 25 February 2011. It's not surprising that movies often arrive from America, however, what may be surprising is that it takes nearly 2 months to make the journey across the pond. "True Grit" for example, is "coming soon" to British theaters, but was showing in the States at Christmas (2010). Monday, 21 February 2011. City break (aka "weekend getaway"). Guess where we ate? After we satisfied our appetites, we wandered through the local market. Olives, Feta, and tomatoes.
