Our trip to the UK with the Agnew family in 2006 was eventful, and fun. Here's a short version of what was a fantastic trip that took us to places that we simply couldn't leave, and to places that we simply didn't want to leave. The aim (for both families) was to visit Alexei and Laura, who were both taking a gap year in the UK. The Agnews went on to visit France in the interim, whilst the Trundles stayed in the southern parts of England. We met up again (and left Alexei and Laura behind) in Japan, and then returned to Australia. The number of flights that we missed was amazing, but the adventures that we had were equally so.
