Newcastle 365: Week 14

I still have pictures from Portugal to post, but I’m still sorting through them all. The benefit of taking thousands of photos is that you’ll have lots to choose from. The downside is that you’ll also have lots to choose from…

So in the mean time, here is the weekly roundup. I didn’t get any pictures this week that I was particularly proud of, but that’s not because I didn’t have a great week. I did–especially the parts when I got to go to the Preston Temple, walked along the river with some of my favorite people, and tried real, un-Americanized Chinese and Japanese food for the first time. I guess I was just too busy having a great time to bother pulling my camera out.

In case I don’t see you again before the big day, Merry Christmas! I hope it is wonderful, and that you take a moment to contemplate the life of Jesus Christ and His Atonement on your behalf. If you haven’t seen it yet, please enjoy this lovely video about the greatest gift ever given.
