England Adventure

So I am really behind on blog posting. Thought today was a perfect day to catch up. It is foggy and cold outside, Emily is napping, and there isn't much going on. One of my goals for the new year is to blog more often, since in a sense, this is my journal.

Anyway, I will start with November. I had the opportunity to go to England with Brian. Brian was going on a work trip, and I came along. I didn't really spend a lot of time with him, but I had a great adventure on my own! I spent a lot of time on the train, as we were staying in a random city called Basingstoke, where Brian's office was. So I toured the English countryside, saw some of London, went to the coolest city called Bath and got to see Windsor Castle. I had only 5 days, so I didn't get to see everything I wanted to, but I had a great time regardless.

Here are some of my favorite sites:

I can't remember which cathedral this was, (I saw a lot of cathedrals and abbeys) but it is an example of the amazing architecture that is everywhere there!

Big Ben and Parliament- So breathtaking

I stood on Waterloo Bridge and took this picture. You can see Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the London Eye, and the river Thames.

This is a picture of the Roman Bathhouse in Bath. This dates from ancient Roman times. Amazing.
Got a little sunset view, along with the Roman Bathhouse, and the abbey behind it.

Went to the Jane Austen Museum, which I loved, and had tea in the Mr. Darcy tearoom upstairs. So much fun, even by myself.

Windsor Castle. The only place I really wished I had someone to tour it with me. It was really amazing to see.

Another shot of Windor Castle, with the only picture of me taken on the whole trip!
