Souvenirs

Benjamin and I want to collect "something" while we are traveling and visiting lots of interesting places. We thought about magnets but realized that could get a little out of control. We wanted something we could display but also something rather small and inexpensive. Benjamin decided on lapel pins or pin badges, as they're sometimes called, which can be found everywhere here! Here is a picture of our collection so far. 
Top to bottom: RAF Mildenhall, RAF Lakenheath, Cambridge, Stiges (Spain), Ely, London, Parliament, Royal Shakespeare Company, Nortre Dame, Duxford, Hever Castle, Chartwell House, Canterbury
Top to bottom, left to right: Royal Shakespeare Company (better view), Roman Baths, Stonehenge, St. Paul's Cathedral, France, Eiffel Tower, Canterbury Cathedral, Wicked, Changing Guard, Buckingham Palace

We've been to some smaller places were these pins just didn't exist. I also need to order a Les Mis pin because we forgot to pick up one, after seeing the show. We have a pretty good collection, even though we've only been in Europe for a few months...5 months and 1 day to be exact.
