Flat Stanley........ our latest visitor

Our latest visitor was Flat Stanley.  He went on a number of touristy trips here in London with Debbie.  He never complained, didn't eat a thing and was a great guest.  Our nephew Daniel's daughter Evie, was participating in a class assignment in Sacramento, California.  Her class was reading Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown.  Stanley is a young boy who is accidentally squished as flat as a pancake when a bulletin board falls on him.  Stanley discovers some real advantages to being flat, but is otherwise fine.  He can slide under doors and even fold himself up small enough to fit into an envelope and be mailed to different locations around the world for a vacation........and that is how he ended up in London.
Here are some highlights of Stanley's vacation in London, England.

We had a very nice visit with Stanley and even if you can't fit through the mail slot we would love to have you come visit us in London.  



Cheers !
