That is too funny about going to McDonald’s on the 4th of July! Good for you, I hope it goes really well. What will you plan? Re Halloween, yes I know it can be very hit or miss here. My next blog post is about the Dos and Don’ts of celebrating Halloween in the UK!

I am Rainbow leader and was discussing with other Rainbow leaders about celebrating Halloween. You know how controversial it can be over here. They told me that they even celebrated the 4th of July by taking their rainbows to McDonalds! I told them I will make plans for their next one because that is not what we are all about

I had a veggie burger (aubergine and mozzarella with pesto-yummy!) and Sam had the Hawaii chicken burger. So no beef – sorry can’t say. My husband eats beef burgers but he’s British so probably can’t answer your question either! Hopefully someone else on here will be able to answer your question Yes, the Sea Life Center is a great day out. Right across from Brighton pier too so lots to do!

I have noticed that burgers here taste differently than those in the states. I think that this is because the cattle are grass fed here, and so are more lean than American beef cattle. How did the burgers taste at the JB diner? I noticed your son got a non-beef burger!

I think though that there is a larger presence of french fries here on the island. I am beginning to discern some small variations among the “chips”, but still, “chips” take up much more room here as a rule.

The boys look like they had a great time!! We will have to try to make a trip out to the aquarium there sometime.
