Dad's trip!

Since its been a while since I've made a proper blog, this one is going to cover a lot of ground in one post... Dad got to come back to England with me from NC and stay for like 10 days. While he was here we did TONS of stuff! We were all over England!

The first day we went to Duxford to the Imperial War Museum. It was pretty interesting
