Consider us now "International Adventurers"!!!! Part 3

Hot on the Mona Lisa trail, we quickly talked Mommy and Daddy into a side trip to London. They still had no idea about our ongoing investigation since it's easier to keep our cover it they are left in the dark. They were very easy to persuade heading to another fabulous foreign destination!

Emery and Avery following their instincts 

(and hopefully the Mona Lisa) to London!!!

Holy cow! The hordes of people milling about London were horrible ... 

... and armies of marching bands roamed the streets every 30 mins ...

... and all of the building were down-right SCARY ...

... and everything was just so HUGE!!! 

How in the world was SIS going to navigate these lands?!?!?!?

Like they say, "When in Rome ...", so we quickly decided

 to take a break and relax in the park a bit with the locals

After many rotations around the Lady Dianna Thinking Fountains,

 we were ready brave the streets again looking for clues

Refreshed and revitalized, Avery invigorated

the clue hunting adventure by wearing her 

Lady Dianna tiara and dancing through the streets!!!

Everyone was soon dancing through the streets ... 

Emery was doing her "Sit Dancing" as

Avery struck-a-pose for any passer-by ...

... Avery even frolicked by all the major sights ...

... where even Mommy was moved by 
the rhythm ...

... and Daddy eventually joined in as well!!!

But after a long hard day searching without a 

single clue in hand, the SIS crew was out for the night!

The next morning, Emery "telling" Avery they need
to really get on the case before the trail goes cold

No place would be left unsearched, even miles and miles of ...

... sewer lines!?!??!??

Ha, ha, just kidding, this was at a fun kid place at 

Lady Dianna Memorial Park by Kensington Palace!!!

And then by chance, a moment stumbling upon some 
Banksy graffiti street art (on a building right outside of 
Parliament) changed out mind set ... 

We needed to go back to the museums to 
get back into a better frame of mind!!!

Avery still a bit in the dancing mood

 at the British Museum

Face-to-face with real life Mummys (and with our Mommy), 

just like our heroes "Scooby-Doo and the Gang"!!!

As luck would have it, chatter around the museum 

water-cooler was that the Mona Lisa had been spotted 

in London and was being secretly held 

"in a very secure place along the water" as big hot-shot

criminals bid on the masterpiece ... time was running out!!!

We quickly charted a boat to search up and down the Thames River!!!

On our third pass of the London Bridge, 

Emery spotted something peculiar ...

... way up at the very top, the second window down you

could see that most infamous smile illuminate the room

like a spotlight ... we needed to get a closer look!!!

We jumped off at Greenwich to use their Royal Observatory and  ...

Eureka!!! Just as we had thought, in that tiny heavily guarded room
you could see what looked like the edges of the Mona Lisa herself!!!

We finally had to tell Mommy and Daddy the truth to get their help, 
so we explained everything and pointed Mommy to the room ...
she couldn't 100% see the Mona Lisa either, but she believed us anyway!!!

Emery having a "power nap" as we headed over to the London Bridge!!!

 

We headed straight for that front gate ...

... but it was very VERY heavily guarded ...

... so ... acting as tourists we "toured" around the entire complex, 

searching every nook and cranny for a way to sneak in 

and steal her back, but security was very VERY tight ... 

it seemed hopeless that we would ever solve the case since 

the police wouldn't believe us without hard evidence ...

... that is until Daddy had a plan!!! 

Daddy's super idea was to send an illustration of the thief's trail to

the newspapers, so that the police would have to investigate, 

the Mona Lisa would get returned back to the Louvre, 

and everyone would know that it was 

"SIS International Adventures" that solved the case!!

(above pic shows the thief walking out 
of the Louvre with the Mona Lisa)

 Pics above of the Fragonard Parfumeur shop (which held her temporary) 

and then the London Bridge (to show where she was currently held at)

Avery mailing the illustrations to the newspapers ...

... after solving a mystery, you have to do a "happy dance"!!!

Long story short, the next day all the newspaper headlines read 
"Emery and Avery, International Heroes, Save The Day"!!!

And on top of all of that, what a truly great family trip!!!
