Vacation Takeaways
09/08/2022 by juliabbb
My husband and I recently returned from two weeks in London and the Veneto region of Italy, which was wonderful. Let’s just say I’m not that happy to be home. I’m struggling a bit, actually, and counting down the days until we can return. In the meantime, I’m trying to stay positive with these takeaways:
- Walking across Tower Bridge almost every day was spectacular.
- Stonehenge was a spiritual experience.
- I was really floored by the Tudor wing of Hampton Court.
- Mudlarking in the Thames.
- London transportation is so convenient, if mostly not air conditioned.
- Walking from Westminster to Tower Bridge…
- Tesco has everything you need. Biscuits, wine, Johnny Walker… That’s everything, right?
- Omg, that spot in the Tower???
- Ravens are awesome.
- So many ridiculously cool Roman sites.
- Okay, so while walking the Jack the Ripper walk…
- Westminster Abbey is everything.
- What is the exchange rate between the pound and the dollar?
- 40 degrees Celsius is what in Fahrenheit???
