In June, we traveled to England with Geoff (Celia's Dad), Paul (Celia's brother), and his girlfriend, Kathy for about 10 days. Our first excursion was to the impressive Wembley Stadium, which was rebuilt in 2007, for the England vs. Switzerland soccer game with cousins Peter, his son, Rory; Alec and his son, Tobias.
Although England was supposed to crush Switzerland, they didn't play at the top of their game and closed with a 2-2 tie.
With the massive crowds (the stadium holds 90,000 people) getting out of the stadium was another story and quite a feat. It took us two hours to get into London to meet Fiona, Cressida, Francesca for dinner. In the midst of the madness, Geoff and Dad got separated from us and ultimately wound up having dinner on their own.
