Travel Blogs from Canterbury, United Kingdom
Leaving this Thursday!
This is a top pick! Well, once again our time home has flown by! I cant believe that its once again time to leave! We had a good time in the US and Canada, we really did, but it was so very expensive, it was freezing cold, and we felt that we diddnt have a challenge ...
Logging on for the last time this year from Kent!!
This is a top pick! Well we are almost there! The flat is nearly all packed away, our backpacks are stuffed to the brim...after us both being ruthless may I add!! This must have been the 3rd attempt to fit everything in, after chucking loads of stuff into dustbin bags and ...
The Canterbury Tales
This is a top pick! ... inns, pubs, restaurants, and shops. While sipping our life-saving cappuccinos we gazed upon the magnificent presence of the Canterbury Public Library. This building was exquisitely English, too bad it wasn't open to enter. Artistic depictions and posters ...
Only 2 working days and 11 days in total!!!!
This is a top pick! Well we have only 2 days left at work! Which is just FANTASTIC because we still have sooooo much stuff to do and sort out!! Last night we travelled down to the BMC travel clinic in Ashford for our last visit, we had our last doses of Hep B and ...
Now its sinking in!!
This is a top pick! Well, we left work approx an hour and a half ago....until today I think that everything that we have planned for absolutely ages was just that, a plan, a dream, something that we longed to be realised, but wasn't, and today seemed so far in the future, I ...
No passport.
This is a top pick! ... . A good thing as it was quite big and a break in the middle worked out well. Bizarrely they had a brochure titled "Canterbury Cathedral and Australian Connections". I can't really remember what they were but there was about 14 of them, such as "this ...
Home again - well not quite
This is a top pick! For the second time in two weeks, we've found it necessary to wake up with an alarm. This is not a pleasant experience. We managed to totally screw up Mandy's directions but regardless, we made it to Dublin Ferry Port anyway. We boarded the boat and set ...
A day at the seaside
This is a top pick! There was an Oyster festival happening at Whitstable which is only 20kms from Canterbury, so Naomi bundled the family in the car and we followed on the canary to the "seaside". As the weather has been fantastic for the last week, the town was packed with ...
Preparing for our trip of a lifetime!
This is a top pick! With less than three weeks until we depart for Istanbul and 8 days to work...we have sooooo much to do! Weve not even started packing the flat up yet, and we have tons of stuff that we are going to try and sell at a boot fair to make some extra ...
Day tripping to Dover
This is a top pick! The yellow canary needed a test ride, so after finally convincing the BOSS to climb aboard a bright yellow motorcycle, we headed off the Dover. We took the back roads as we will, once again, be trying to avoid motorways or any road that contains semi ...
Trains and planes and buses and trains
This is a top pick! ... plane from Paris to London was the opposite - freezing cold. We left the hotel in Paris at 11am and reached Naomi's place in Canterbury at 6.30pm - hot and bothered and sick of public transport. Wed: We sat around ALL day watching TV. It was still ...
Canterbury Cathedral (World)
This is a top pick! "The Mother Church of the Anglican World" We saw Canterbury Cathedral on a tour from London. We enjoyed it very much, and probably our only disappointment was that we didn't get to spend more time in the town itself. The cathedral was amazing. I had never ...
Hmmmm Santorini sounds nice
This is a top pick! Today is wet - AGAIN - not just wet..... COLD and WET ...
Taking it easy
This is a top pick! Today was our lazy day. We did our washing, watched TV and slummed around the house for the morning. The weather has been typically British - drizzly rain although not too cold. Everyone is trying to convince me that they had a lovely hot day last ...
Vive La France!
This is a top pick! ... can just climb the stairs up to bed after wards. It has been a long travel day involving a tube, 2 buses, the amazing Canterbury Cathedral and our first trip through the amazing tunnel between Britain and France nicknamed the Chunnel. We had left London ...
I have wheels again!
This is a top pick! I woke at 9am - a good sleep-in for me - only I was supposed to be on a train at 9.30am. I looked up the timetable on the internet to see when the next train was and discovered that Brit rail had chosen today to suspend some of its services. Naomi ...
England
This is a top pick! The Americas, top to bottom, 14 countries, 185 days, 30,000 miles, two trucks, 20 people and heavens knows how many photos. I`ve arrived in Ushuaia in Tierra del Fuego (land of fire) at the end of the world in Argentina. Tomorrow I board a plane ...
Potter Mania
Is Harry Potter the most famous fictional character of all time? I should think so, but to be honest I'd never really 'got' the Harry Potter craze. I had tried reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (the first book of the series for other ...
Stuck At Work
So this is the first entry in our travel pod. Not very interesting I'm afraid as we are still stuck in Canterbury waiting for our big trip around Europe to begin. You can tell how excited we are though as we have started our travel pod already, before the ...
BBQ
Well here are the photo's from the bbq! Thank you all for coming , hope everyone had a fab time. We really enjoyed it and the weather stayed nice!! It seems we weren't the only ones having fun last night, we appear to have a drunken pup this ...
Cathedrals in Canterbury
Friday 9th March Got up this morning and headed to Victoria station to get my train to Cantebury. Arrived without a problem and just in time for the next train. After the 1.5hr train ride through the cute English country side I arrived in ...
Canterbury
We visit Canterbury for a day and stay in a great independent hostel. The town is small and very quiet at night. Some of the people are unpleasant, which seems to correspond with what we've been told about the nicer Brits living in the north, and they get ...
Leaving Work
So today is the day that I leave work at BTF Lister. I must try and come to terms with the fact that I will not have to work for the next 7 months and just spend my time chilling out and relaxing. It's going to be difficult I know but I'm sure I'll ...
A Trip Back in Time
... people crowding the streets and hearing all those languages being thrown about the streets made me think that this is probably what Canterbury has always been like. Pilgrims from all over, coming to Canterbury to pay homage to Saint Thomas or Chaucer or ...
Getting nervous
So T-21 days until we set off on our big adventure. Gayle is in Dubai for a few days (forty-eighth business trip in the last 6 months it feels like), I'm at home getting to grips with this blogging lark and thinking about the fact I've only got 3 ...
