... the time to explain the bus schedule and mapped out the path to the nearest stop.
After working with the travel office we went into Windsor and had lunch. This is when it all set in. I started to remember what I had left in my back pack and I started to cry. My journal, the Fay doll and my new hat and scarf were in the bag. I was sure we would never see it all again. The poor waiter must have thought Jim and I were fighting. I kept dabbing my eyes with my napkin. Jim ...

... boys that we should go to the castle first, but all they wanted to do was to go to Legoland (and secretly I was on their side!), so off to Legoland we went!

The admission prices were a little bit of a shock, but once we started to look around (and after the weather fined up a little bit) we could sort of see why.

... of important people stay when they come to visit the Queen, and the Chapel of St. George. This chapel contains the tombs of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour (his only wife to give him a son), George V and the Queen Mum, and Henry IV (I think); however, the George V/Queen Mum is the only tomb that is clearly marked. I walked over the grave of Henry VIII and didn't even realize it until after I did it! Of course, I was also rushing back to the bus ...

... boys boarding school in the world. It was originally started to educate lower class boys who showed promise. It still does that to a certain extent today but it also educates the royals. Unless you are a woman of course...cause they don't need that good of an education. Unfortunately, you can't tour any of the college when school is in session. I was lucky enough to wander ...

... a group of six American couples in front of us as well that we picked off almost right away as they didn't have accents. They seemed to be doing some traveling and from what we gathered were in Rome before coming to London. 2 hour bus ride later... Our first stop was Windsor Castle, for those that don't know it is the weekend home for the Queen of England. It's located in Windsor, England and is the largest inhabited castle in ...

Hello Everybody, I hear the weather in Melbourne is terrible!!! Well, here in London the weather is perfect. We arrived on Thursday morning around 9am and were met by Jackie's cousin Elissa at the airport. We went back to her lovely place in Putney and went out for breakfast along the Thames with Jackie's aunty Merran. As her family would say "just lovely". We were a bit jet lagged so we just lazed around ...

... would need to eat 300 millipedes to be poisoned. Ferrets are from North America, eat meaty things, stick out their teeth when they are angry and are smelly. They are related to the wolverine. A tortoise eats greens and cannot swim. Turtles can swim. Burmeses pythons can grow very big; the biggest one found is 28 feet long. Adult pythons can eat small deers and antelopes. The longest snake on record is a reticulated python.

... so I would suggest checking out the pictures I've uploaded for a good look at what I saw on the day. After several hours of wandering around town I ended back up at Trafalgar square. With the sun going down came the lights of the city and the Christmas tree in the park which as beautiful, but as It got closer to 4, I was due to meet with a good family friend at a local pub called the Old Bank of England, and as I couldn't turn down a good pint and the fact It was ...

... Luang Prabang in Laos, on to Siem Reap in Cambodia and then Bangkok in Thailand. After spending about 3 weeks in the areas above we will move on to Calcutta and spend the last 3 weeks exploring India. I cannot wait, im both scared and excited, and i have less than two weeks to go! Woop!

... 4) 2 minute phone call, I made several misguided attempts to find the tube, before descending into the underground to follow Kira´s well-written directions to Finsbury Park where we had planned to meet. I arrived without a hitch and was forced to make another bank-breaking phone call to inform Kira of my successful arrival at the new location. After hug-filled hellos we took another short tube ride to the stop near her house and ...
