lohnerlicious: February 2012

Well, a lot of time has passed...and tons of excitement in the Lohner family. We really don't like to get bored! Only boring people get bored, right girls? Just so ya know, each one of our trips starts with a 4:15 wake-up call, thanks to Mike. For some reason, he really wants to get there early and enjoy an ENTIRE DAY, and seems to forget that people with sleep deprivation have a hard time enjoying sights. Anywhere. But we like to keep him happy so it just keeps happening. (p.s. post by mamacita)

A trip to Heidelberg, Germany:

Wiesbaden
Schloss Heidelberg
Mannheim
Bad Winfen
Schwabisch Hall
Frankfurt Temple

Heidelberg Schloss

Medieval awesomeness!

Heidelberg Schloss

ensuring "viel gluck" on our trip

We LOVED the Weinacht markets in every village and felt right at home. Must be the Swiss heritage kicking in! Corinne admitted Germany is her favorite yet.

Sydney, John and the entire Lunt family were able to spend two nights and an entire day in London traipsing around with us. Glorious!

London Eye
Parliament buildings
Westminster Abby
V &A museum
and a bunch of other London stuff (and lots of fun being with cousins)

Mike even took the kids out for a midnight hunt for the disturbingly fascinating urban foxes. Unfortunately, they didn't see a single hint of one.

Covent Garden

Big Ben

Parliament buildings

Grandma and Grandpa Lohner came to London!!!

St. Paul's Cathedral
more London Eye
Parliament buildings
Westminster Abby

shhhhh....don't tell them. Besides, two whole days had passed since we'd been there :)

A trip to the Cotswold's and an invite to have lunch at Prince "Someone important's" retreat in the country.

And then the ultimate Christmas vacation in the south of France! Michael McKay in tow...
