Easter Break - Pt. 1 Brighton

We had a nice 2 week Easter Vacation (well it's not over yet!) Before Easter we went to Brighton for 2 nights - which is similar to Santa Cruz, or New Port Beach Pier, or Coney Island - it was so fun and a little bit for all of us. We stayed in a nice hotel - the DeVere - right on the water. Of course in 2 rooms but they were quite roomy for England!

It isn't very far from us either - about a 40 min drive......





























This is one of the old Royal Palaces - it is actually much smaller than I thought it would be - but still worth to see...

  3. I saw a guy who looked JUST like your husband. I almost asked him if he was but figured he wouldn't be in SL at the air port. It was so weird.

  4. Funny - actually he has 3 brothers and they do all look very similar - but the one that lives there just had a baby so I know he wouldn't be there - one lives in NYC and one in ID....so you never know!!

  7. That picture of you and Mike as the lifeguard and drowning person is cracking me up. It looks a little chilly for beach time though.
