^ I saw The King's Speech over the weekend. It was fantastic. Colin Firth should get an Oscar for it! I saw The King's Speech on Friday. It was SO good!

Yes, I'm very lucky that my boss is letting me travel for an entire month. Taking this as a "once in a lifetime" trip.

So far the plan is: Athens, Greek Isles, Florence, Venice, Vienna, Prague, Munich, Paris, London. And even though I am super jealous that Ben gets to study at Oxford for 6 more weeks when we're done, I actually do enjoy the time home alone.

I'm going to Europe for almost a month this summer. Starting with my cousin's wedding in Greece and working my way to England to drop Ben off at Oxford for the rest of the summer before heading home. I can't wait.

Hi guys! It's the end of my day so I'm just watching television but I wanted to say hi because it's been awhile since I dropped by and this seemed like a good thread to use. So...HI!

Yeah, but that's the only thing I can find about it. Makes me think wikipedia is wrong.

Does it seem like the list is rather male-heavy?

I thought both that maybe Mary Catherine was the real killer and that maybe she was a ghost. But Charles sees her.
I know MC is unreliable but I feel so bad for her once Charles comes. Why does he have to invade their lives so much? I'm actually cheering for him to end up dead somehow.
The news that Julian thinks MC is dead is so intriguing to me that I am going to go keep readig instead of attempting to sleep like I should.
Sorry for the short reply. I'm on my phone.

I fell a little behind (or really behind) but I'm hoping to catch up this weekend and hop in the conversation.
