I didn’t plan to put up a Photo Friday post today – mainly because yesterday, I said “Goodbye” to CAM as he headed off to the UK, Portugal and Ireland for his first solo backpacking trip in Europe (at the grand old age of 16!!). For me, this was as big as his first day at school. My house feels too quiet without him.
My only rule for CAM as he was heading off yesterday was that he post a photo a day on Facebook so we could follow along with his trip. He just landed in London this morning and luckily was able to spend this evening at the Athletics events at London’s Olympic Stadium with my sister – where he took the photo above.
When I saw Debbie’s post today: London Sunshine, I thought that I should post CAM’s photo as a parenting bookend: her photo is of her kids playing in a playground in London, mine is taken by my child watching people play on his first solo trip to London.
Head on over to DeliciousBaby for more travel-themed Photo Friday fun.
