One might wonder why Ed and I took such a quick trip to London - besides
we wanted to. Actually we went to see the Vikings play football there.
Ed's brother works for the Vikings and so we went to see them (a second time) play in England. This time in Twickenham - "The Home Of British Rugby".

Browns and Vikings Ready for Kick Off - it was a sell-out |
British Rugby is what our American Football was based on, so it made sense. It also helped that our friends live there and we get on great with them. So, some footy pics.

Brownie the elf - the Cleveland Browns are trying to bring him back for some reason |
More than anything else, it is a Grand Day Out for Brits who like American Football.

Since American Games are held so rarely, people wear whatever jersey they support - irregardless of who is playing |

The local paratroopers were watching the game - not patroling |

Entertainment on the way back to the station. Note he is literally playing (bagpipes) with fire! |
