Stamford and Burghley House...in the rain

 The day started out as a disappointment for the Harry Potter fans all around the world...Platform 9 3/4 has been reduced to fake brick...they are doing construction around the real one.  But all of that drama didn't dampen Nicole's Harry Lovin Spirit...she took a run at it anyway!

 Love an English sculptured garden... I want to own this house but have someone else do all the cleaning and yardwork.  Basically, I want to be rich and have everyone wait on me!

 I would fit right in, they also have a great taste in cars--  This is the house used in the Da Vinci code and Pride and Prejudice.  It's the greatest Elizabethan house in England

 Me and Nicole

 artsy fartsy with a dewy spiderweb on the gate...

 Susie is singing in the rain- might as well make the best of a rainy day!

more gardens...

 white girl can jump!  Nicole at Stamford.  This road was used in the filming of Pride and Prejudice (hence why Nicole is jumping for joy)

What's a trip to London without classic Jane Austen...notice the price.

the street they used in Pride and Prejudice

Tomorrow we are going to Bleinham Palace (if you watch the Young Victoria, parts are filmed there) where the most amazing gardens are, and Oxford to tour the town.

I love that Nicole took a run at Platform 9 3/4, that is so cool!
