Britain as Florence Tells It

David and I got back from Britain and Ireland at the beginning of this month. I could bore you with details of our trip but I think Florence tells it better in pictures:

About to leave Sydney airport to begin our adventures.

 No visit to London would be complete without visiting the Library

 Getting Lost in Hampton Court Palace maze

The famous Tower of London Bridge, before protestors closed it for a few hours

High Tea - Because that's what you do when in England!

National Leprechaun Museum - Only in Ireland ;)

Cardiff Castle in Wales

 Bath

 Stonehenge

Whitby

Stirling Castle in Scotland

Best Thing on the Trip: By far, for me it was visiting Scotland. Partially because it is my heritage but mostly because the scenery was stunning. The heather on the hills was breathtaking beautiful. I can't choose just one location though because I enjoyed them all.

Worst Thing on the Trip: Getting sick. Dubbed the 'superbug' or the 'plague' we both got a terrible cold (I don't think I have ever been so sick from a simple cold) and we both got secondary infections from it. It's always expected that you'll get something overseas but it really makes exploring hard some days.

Weirdest Thing on the Trip: Being on the Tower of London Bridge exhibition when protestors started jumping out of a window right in front of us. You can read the news story here
