Great Britain, holds the history of once being the most powerful nation in the world. Although this status has long since passed, there are few areas of the country where evidence of this former glory are absent. Relics of an industrial past dot the landscape, and expansive stately homes display the profits reaped both at home and abroad.
Although famed for it's rain, the British climate is temperate, with mild winters and pleasant summers. The British countryside offers a taste of both the quaint and the unkempt, and provides opportunities for various outdoor activities such as hiking, climbing and pot-holing.
Britain's cities are vibrant and exciting, with long and diverse histories of development, historic buildings and stunning modern architecture.

24 hours to go! Ahhhhhh!
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Greater London
My road trip around North America begins in less than 24 hours. For those of you that aren't aware of my latest travel plans, im heading over for a three month road trip with my mate Kate. We're meeting in San Diego, California then hiring a car and driving across the country in the style of Thelma and Louise - well not really, but you get my point! If you dont know Kate, heres a little bit of a run down. We met back in the day when I used to work at Monash University in Melbourne. She's a bright young [View Full Entry]

Our Itinerary
Europe » United Kingdom » England » West Midlands » Sutton Coldfield
(Bronia typing) Here is our Itinerary - planned as much as we can to give structure and a general direction, but still giving flexibility for us to change our minds about the length of time we spend in any one place. This framework of dates is based on pre-booked key flights (bold text) that we have booked and our idea of how long we want to spend in any one place. The rest however could change as we go along. Where we refer to a flight that is not in bold text, it means is not booked yet. We start [View Full Entry]

My World Wide Bing Bong Bananza Itinerary
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Greater London » Enfield Town
Hello everybody, I haven’t left yet, I go Friday, but I’m pretty bored so I thought I’d write a pre-leaving entry deal now to explain the trip and everything that I’m doing. I’m starting with a stop over to get shot in LA, which I have heard mostly really bad things about, but one good review from Northern Mel, so I’ll wait and see for that one. Then I’m going to the Cook Islands and Fiji for three weeks to chill and get over the gunshot wounds from LA, then over to New Zealand for 2 months. There I’m gonna do [View Full Entry]

High Expectations & Jet Lag Good Morning, Afternoon or Evening, this will be short post because I don't have much new to report yet. I remember being excited about taking the tube to work, this excitement is morphing into boredom as you stare idly into blank faces avoiding eye contact at all measure. On Saturday I'm changing hotels to one about 20 minutes closer to work which will be nice. Dolphin Square is nice enough, but it's not really convenient to anything of interest and if shopping is close by, I can't find it. This morning I met with my new [View Full Entry]

Day 3 - 1st full day in London
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Greater London » London City
I didn't sleep too bad last nite even though there's constuction going on right outside our window...the hostel is across the road from St. Paul's Cathedral so every 15mins, we can hear the bells from that as well! We got up at about 730-8am, had breaky at 830am and then called Mick & Di to sort out where we would meet them tomorrow. For today, we thought we would try and watch the changing of the guards and go to the London eye. Just around the corner from our hostel, there's an information centre so we went and got some directions [View Full Entry]

Just another Manic Monday!
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Greater London
Today is Monday! As far as days here, it sure was jammed pack! But before I get to today, Last night, at about midnight, the fire alarms in Metrogate went off!!! I was scared! and the only thing I could think of the entire time down the stairs, was, what about my iPod, my laptop, my camera!!! BUT thank the Lord it was a false alarm! And then everyone was laughing at me, because I had my frilly PJ's on, with my Silky robe from the Gap and my Salon slippers! They thought I looked like a rich mom! Well, of [View Full Entry]

'Taking a break' means Procrastination
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Nottinghamshire » Nottingham
So in lieu of studying for my last remaining final, I have decided to catch everyone up on just what has transpired since the beginning of finals week. My first two finals went fine, I hope, although they were quite hard and people here write an extraordinary amount in a short period of time. By this I mean that the test booklets are on A4 paper, with about 6-8 sheets per booklet. People would actually ask for another booklet, so they were definitely writing essays.....research essays that they amazingly remembered. I was quite impressed but also quite annoyed, as I always [View Full Entry]

Day 2 - Arrival in London
Europe » United Kingdom » England » Greater London » London City
We arrived in London around 12pm, got off the plane and before we got our bags, we had to show them our passports, visas and baggage tags. We got our bags and made our way to the main area where we checked in for our airport tranfers. The bus picked us up at about 1:45pm and people got dropped off at hotels and hostels all over the place. We were the last people on the bus and when the driver realised we were aussies, he started pointing out where all the pubs were in our area! About an hour later, we [View Full Entry]
