                    <title>Victoria Art Gallery and Coursham Court</title>
                    <description>The weather forecast of 14 May wasnt very promising. We tried to make most of it. We walked along the riverside walk towards Pulteney Bridge. As planned we looked round the Victoria Art Gallery. The gallery possessed excellent collections of Georgian Victorian Edwardian Modern and Contemporary masterpieces sculptures Bristol glassworks and porcelain and wonderful sketches and landscape </description>

                    <title>Excursion to Bristol from Bath</title>
                    <description>We had planned visiting Bristol and Cliffton Suspension Bridge on 13 May. Mark had printed the maps and bus timetables from the Internet. We caught the bus from Bristol from the bus terminal in Bath. After having an hour journey a wide area of residential houses and large buildings appeared in our sight. Bristol is regarded as a city and every single building looked bigger than Bath and Gloucest</description>

                    <description>Mark had booked Avon Guest House on Pulteney Road. It was quite easy for us to find the hotel on 11 May 2013. The hotel owner gave warm and friendly welcome to us and explained us that there were a number of historic buildings within the walking distance in Bath.  After having a rest we walked to the town centre. We popped in Bath Abbey and looked round the inside. There was a special exhibition</description>

                    <description>As expected it took over an hour to travel to Osterley Park by tube. Upon the arrival we followed the footpath along the Avenue. We found brown and white cows and calves grazing on the pasture field on the left hand on the way to the main entrance.  As planned we sat on the grass and had a picnic on the main lawn  surrounded by the house and lake. There were a lot of people either sitting on t</description>

                    <description>Sachis mum Mrs Shinobu Negishi is interested in plants. There are some gardens where they could offer attractions over the winter period. Kew Gardens is one of them. Hence I took her there on Wednesday 13 February.  Like the previous day when they arrived in London it was bitterly cold on 13 February. Mrs Negishi treated me to the entrance fees for Kew Gardens.

                    <description>Mark took a day off on 5 October. We decided to visit Chilham Kent which I visited a couple years ago.  We took the high speed train from St Pancras Station and transferred to the southeast train at Ashford International Station. Mark found the high speed train very efficient and comfortable.  I remembered the way to access the village from Chilham station. After reaching the entrance of Chilham</description>

                    <description>Our final destination was Nrnberg which was 6090 minutes journey by ICE train from Munich. My mother remembered the Gothic buildings which were seen just above the station buildings.  One of the good things about Nrnberg is Altstadt Old Town is near the central station and all of the attractions were within the city wall. We found the subway leading to Koning Tor and Koningstrae.

I was awoken by the rain drops in the early morning.  We had planned eating our own breakfast in our room on 25 June. We all had bread cheese and ham and coffee at 7 oclock.

                    <description>Like the previous day we left Pension Bruns at 9 oclock. Mark went to the bank in the station to get his traveller cheques exchanged. I had checked the timetable for departure at the station and learnt that the train for Heidelberg would depart from the platform 12. However the train didnt turn up even though my watch indicated at 1010. Then in a few minutes later the gentlemen in the D</description>

After the breakfast we walked to the central station to take ICE train for Wrzburg. After leaving Frankfurt the ICE train was driving through the lush countryside calling at Aschaffenburg. The view from the window was getting brighter</description>

There were various types of bread fresh vegetables hot meals e.g. sausages scrambled eggs cheese fruits and coffees and teas and we selected the food from the buffet breakfast.

                    <description>I talked about the Red House in Bexleyheath to Mark after visiting there with my cousin. We decided to visit there on the Diamond Jubilee Bank Holiday on 4 June 2012. As we approached the destination Mark soon recognised the redbrick faade building. The reception was established at the former stable building and we were given the information of the house.

The bus drove past there on the way to Wroxeter village. The bus driver kindly stopped at the bus stop and gave us the direction to Wroxeter Roman City.

We took the No.426 bus from Abbey Foregate on 21 May. As we got off the bus on the Kings Street we headed for Wenlock Priory. We showed our English Heritage Membership cards at the reception and were offered free audio guides. The laurel hedge path led us to the site of the be</description>
