Enders Game
It sounds like we'll have to wait a bit longer for the movie production of Enders Game. Although supposedly the script is written, producers are searching for another director. Yet, for those of us who are sci-fi fans, fear not, Marvel Comics (with input from Orson Scott Card) should be releasing a new Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow comic book series later this year. Woo!
(And geekdom shines through)

Billy Jean
Sorry David Archuletta, David Cook has become my new favorite American Idol. Combined with a little Michal Jackson and Chris Cornell, this is pretty good stuff:

More photos
Keble College Chapel
Atop the Saxon Tower of St. Michael, the oldest building in Oxford (1040 AD)
If you haven't had enough Oxford/London photos, I've posted a few more recent photos in a public album on facebook:

Adventure
"The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And wither then? I cannot say."
"Not all those who wander are lost."
- J.R.R. Tolkien
"I may not have gone where I intended to go,
but I think I have ended up where I intended to be"
- Douglas Adams

Touring London
Matthew traveled to England to visit this Easter break (I've been smiling since). Here is a glimpse of some of our exciting London adventures:
The Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace.
Donuts at Camden Market... they look better than they taste. That's experience talking.
Matthew and I thought about "feeding the birds" while enjoying a snack break at St. Paul's Cathedral. I was a bit disappointed to learn that it costs £10 ($20) to tour the cathedral. Fortunately for us, the architecture is still breathtaking from the outside.
To my delight, we attended a showing of my favorite musical, Les Miserables. It is the longest running production in London, first located at the Palace Theatre, and now performing at the Queen's Theatre.
After several fun packed days in London, it was time to travel to Oxford. I will be getting backpacking tips from Matthew.
