Hey everyone,
Sorry I've been silent on here for the past couple days. I wasn't feeling like posting due to emotional stuff (I'm okay now, though), and then we were on a plane.
Wednesday was our last full day in England, and we went to the Tower of London, a Starbuck's, Tower Bridge, and an Indian restaurant. I wasn't feeling very creative as I mentioned before, so I only got one picture at the Tower of London.

At Tower Bridge, we decided to try to recreate a picture we got at the top of the London Eye six years ago. The composition and order are different, but the idea is still similar.
Yeah, I was paying very close attention to the fact that there was a picture being taken.....

As always, we never get a picture with three good smiles at the same time.
Finally, we went to an Indian place in a "scientific" effort to sample Indian food in Paris, London, and Chicago (though we didn't end up stopping in Chicago, deciding just to drive straight home). Here's a really cool picture I got of the dessert display at the restaurant.

That's it for Wednesday.
Thursday started bright and early, when we left the house and got a taxi to Heathrow. It was a long plane ride to Chicago, but all of the seats had seat-back entertainment systems (a screen on the back of the seat in front) for us to watch movies. I saw Tomorrowland, Focus, Eye in the Sky, and part of Deadpool. All of them were good, although I didn't really like Deadpool. I think the choice for favorite is a tie between Tomorrowland and Eye in the Sky.

That's it for my travels in Europe. It was a fantastic trip, we got to do all sorts of fun things, and I got a ton of experience with photography and blogging. I want to give a huge thank-you to all of you who stuck with me through the entire trip, and a welcome to all of you who joined some point along the way.
I will continue updating the site with new projects as often as I can and I hope you all keep checking back to see what I'm doing. I love hearing from readers what they think of my work, so I encourage you to send me emails with any feedback or questions you might have.
Thank you so much for reading,
Alec
