Belgian waffle!!!

Ok, we went on a long walk and it was rainy so we left camera's and iPhone at the apartment. I don't have photos evidence but I can tell you my Belgian waffle, drizzled in warm liquid chocolate and topped with whip cream was insanely delicious. I'll take a picture tomorrow when I go back and have another. I will be starting an epic diet when get stateside until then...screw it!! Here are some photos from our day.

Our English friend Tim Turner

So Heather met a guy in England playing Word Feud about 5 years ago. They develop a friendship and then I start playing Word Feud with him and we become friends. When he finds out we are coming to the UK we plan to meet up. Tim, picks us up from Holy Head (west coast of England) in a Jaguar and then drives us over 3 hours through the gorgeous mountains of Snowdonia! We arrive at a friends house (Dee) and she makes us veggie lasagna and 6 different salads from her garden and cup cakes. Then she gives us her bed for the night!! The following day we hit the road with cupcakes to go! Tim drives us another 3+ hours and we stop at a road side farm with organic meats and have an amazing breakfast.  Then on to Bourton on the Water. Where we visit a bird sanctuary and then have a great dinner. We had an awesome Tim hanging out with Tim, he's a great guy and now a good friend.
