I started out the day by having breakfast at the hostel. It was interesting because the hostel was ajoined to a bar and breakfast was in the bar. After breakfast I decided to head back to London since there was still a number of things that I wanted to see there. I jumped on the…
England – Day 7
Once more it was time to hit the road for another town. This time I was off to Brighton. Brighton is a beach town and quite the popular weekend destination to hang out at the beach. Because of having to change trains twice and it being Sunday, I didn’t get to Brighton until after 2. …
England – Day 6
My tour to Stonehenge wasn’t slated to leave until after lunch, so I spent the morning taking a free walking tour of the city. This was yet another informative city tour that I enjoyed. The tour guide had a lot of information and I enjoyed it even though I had seen most of the places…
England – Day 5
After sleeping in, it was off to Bath for part of the weekend. I had originally planned to stop at Stonehenge on my way to Bath, but after talking with someone at the hostel, I modified my plans to take a tour from Bath. So I bought tickets on the train to Bath where I…
England – Day 4
Today I traveled to Oxford to check out the area. I had to catch the Tube to the proper train station where I was able to book a ticket to Oxford with no problems. It was nice that I was able to get a direct train. Upon arriving, I checked into my hostel, dropped my…
England – Day 3
After a restless night of sleep, I headed out in London to see more sights. My first stop was St. Paul’s Cathedral. This is the second largest catholic church in the world. I was once again disappointed by the fact that I was unable to take pictures. I was still more impressed with my visit…
England – Day 2
After a refreshing night’s sleep, I was looking forward to heading out for the day. I grabbed some breakfast at the hostel and headed for the Tube. Unfortunately the line that I was trying to get on was not running because there was someone under the train a station away. I ended up jumping on…
England – Day 1
What a long day my first day in England was. It actually started before I got here when my flight out of Pittsburgh was delayed due to air traffic and weather. Luckily I made my connection without a problem and got into London with no issues. Upon landing at LHR I jumped on the Underground…
On the road again!
It’s been almost two years since I’ve been out of the country on vacation or otherwise. I have been on a couple of domestic road trips, but I’m really looking forward to heading overseas. This time I’m off to England for a week and a half. I’ve been doing a bit of planning and will…
Final Days in BA
I spent my last weekend in BA. This was nice because I didn’t have to worry about making it back there in time to make my flight on Sunday, plus there was so much stuff I still had to see there. After getting back to BA on Friday, I set out to find a place…
