Hurry Up and Wait

Leif, Saga and I are off on another grand adventure. This time our non-troll travel companion is my Mom! This trip has been on our mind for years and in planning for months. It will cross a lot of things off the adventure list. Speaking of lists (one of my favourite subjects), many were used in the preparation of this adventure. The very first, and most exciting, being - what places do we want to see? This is Mom's dream trip, so she got to take point on this. As you may have guessed by the currency, we are heading to the UK. Unlike last time, we used our trusty AMA travel agent, Lori. It was lovely to sit back and let her do all the hard work!

What Do You Mean, It's not Named After Me?

Dur means hill, ham means island, so Durham is a hill on an island. This was our first stop after leaving Leeds.  I could have spent days here.  The market square had some lovely volunteers to help direct tourists. They showed us where to find a free public bathroom- very good information indeed!

Traveling Through Time and Space

Our first full day in London, which we were on our own for, was spent at the British Museum. But first we had to learn some things. Museums are free here, as culture and heritage are available to everyone. What we didn't know - you have to prebook your start time. Fortunately, we stopped to talk to the hotel concierge first.  That done, we then had to figure out how to get there, on the London Underground.  This turned  out to be actually quite straightforward - once we got to the right train station. The overground and underground are just across the street from eachother. It was Mom's first time on a subway- a new experience that she can check off her list! We gave ourselves plenty of time, and took the opportunity to walk around a bit. We have been impressed by how green London is. There is a beautiful park every few blocks. And one had a coffee shop. We could learn a thing or two about that!
