National Lampoon's European Vacation

The family is just back from a vacation to England for my Dad's 60th birthday (which we celebrated in style with dinner out and a party the following day).

Jack was a travel trooper, flying for 14 hours and driving for 7 without melting down. He got to spend time with the grand- and great grand-parents while I golfed and watched the Ashes (bi-annual cricket contest between England and Australia)--it's one of my favorite sporting events but was disappointed to see England only manage a draw despite dominating 1 of the 5 days.

Jack continues to develop; he is almost at a point where he can stand without falling over, an art mastered by few of the Collins clan beyond 10pm. He loves to crawl, watch games of table tennis, and throw the ball around the room.

Will share photos shortly.
