Dear diary (HAHA), this is going to be a two part post, as the title would indicate I have some organising to do and I have some England to talk about! But first off, for those who have been following the blog, the photos are now in a rough order and have captions and are in higher quality, so head back down the page and see hem again if you want. And hopefully I'll put some more photos up tomorrow or the next day, depending on how much time I have spare :)
Organising!
So far the trip has gone pretty well with minimal organising. I am a little embarassed to admit that yes I did book my acoommodation for when I landed in England for the first time last week the night before flew out of Adelaide. That's also when I booked my flights to Italy the next day, and everything went pretty smooth i'm proud to say. But I have been meaning to prepare an itinerary for those back home, in particular Mum, Dad, Grandma and Dar! But until now I have not had an hour to myself on a computer to type one up! It's hard to believe considering im already 10 days into my trip! But between flying and hanging out with Elisa in Italy and Jacki in London, I have been flat out.
So here is a pretty rough outline of my plans between now and August 1st.
Itinerary
21June-Today
22/23June-Solo in England, cleaning out and organising my bags and sorting some photos maybe?
24June-Meet Kelly and Jamie at the airport at 5:55am (sigh)
25June-2July- Tour bus from London, anti-clockwise to Scotland, Ireland and Wales(more details later)
2July-19July- Free time with Kelly and Jamie! Heading back east but to where and when is still to be decided. Most likely to but not limited to; Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany.
20July-24July- Going by myself on a guided tour to the last 3 stages of the Tour de France, beginning in Lyon, South France and ending in Paris on the 24th(my birthday!).
25July-29July- Chilling in France with Kelly, Jamie and for some time Ben Delecourt, a.k.a. 'Frenchy'. Hopefully he can show us some cool stuff in his home town of Paris.
29July-1Aug- Travelling home :(
England
Sunday was a pretty relaxed day, despite being in Italy, France and England in the one afternoon I actually didn't do much except stare out of windows. Monday I met Jacki (friend from SA) in the morning and we spent the day walking around London looking at cool stuff and she got a pretty nice tattoo on her leg. Then we had a late tea because I'm still on Italian eating times so I haven't been getting hungry until about 9pm.
And today was a real cool day. I had breakfast with the Amor family then after accidentally catching the wrong bus and ending up in Chelsea we caught the train to the other side of London and went to the royal tower. That's where the queen keeps her bling and other cool jewelry but sadly cameras are banned so you'll have to google the crown jewels. Then we cruised down the river to the London eye (massive ferris wheel), went for a spin on that and then said my farewells to the Amor's and prepared for 2 days of solo missions.
