Date: January 13th, 2006 – January 23rd, 2006
Airline: Air Canada
Duration of trip: 10 days
This second trip to London, England was the first time I ever travelled alone. I stayed with a friend in central London and spend most of the time walking out and about on my own, trying to experience as much of the big city as possible. Briefly passing through Glastonbury, Somerset during my last visit made me want to visit again and so this trip, I made it a point to get out of the city and find my way back. I took a National Express coach from London to Bristol and then hopped on a local bus to Glastonbury. In enchanting Glastonbury, I stayed at the lovely Dragonfly B&B and was able to further explore the village after having only briefly explored during my previous visit. This trip made me realize how much I loved London and after speaking with my friend, I decided to try and move out there. Museums, theatre, shopping and sightseeing occupied my time and I tried to take in as much of the city as possible.
Besides the Glastonbury aspect of the trip, highlights include browsing the many stalls in the Camden Stable Market, fueling my creativity by exploring the many museums, and singing along to notable songs during the Mary Poppins musical.
