How neat! I'd love to visit there someday ... of course, I won't be doing any extended overseas travel as long as my dog is alive. I simply would never board him ~ I think he'd pine away. He travels with us everywhere and is one of those dogs who is never far from our side for long.
I'm an Air Force brat, and we were stationed over there for 7 years, total. The UK is a beautiful country, but cold and grey a lot of the time.
