We got up early and prepared breakfast in our hotel room. We then took the tube and were amused but a pigeon on the train. When … More United Kingdom-Day 8-Cardiff, Wales
Ever since my husband and I visited Spain in the spring of 2011 we have fantasized about living in Europe or the United Kingdom. It is, of course, easy to envision how much easier your life would be somewhere else when you are only there on vacation. The seventh day of our trip felt much … More United Kingdom-Day 7-Drama and Sky Garden
The sixth day of our trip to the Untied Kingdom would mark the end of one part of the trip and the beginning of another part.

Although I really enjoyed that film I didn’t ever really have much interest in seeing the subsequent sequels. I wasn’t that … More Ocean’s 8
Thankfully I was able to get a good night’s sleep on our third night in Edinburgh. After enjoying our breakfast buffet and doing our best to avoid all the sick people also enjoying it we were ready to head out for another day exploring Scotland. This time we were staying in Edinburgh. Our first destination … More United Kingdom-Day 4-Calton Hill and the Palace at Holyroodhouse
A few weeks ago, my husband and I went to see “Hereditary”. I love horror movies and after the disappointment of “The Incredibles 2” I was hoping a good thrill would get my summer movie viewing season back on track. Unfortunately, I was incredibly disappointed in the film. There were a few scary and shocking … More Hereditary
The last few times my husband and I have traveled to Europe my jet lag has hit me on the second night that we sleep on the other side of the Atlantic. That was once again the case this year. In a way it made sense. When we first arrived in Edinburgh I was so … More United Kingdom-Day 3-Glasgow
