inside Buckingham Palace (available
only in summer). We stayed at a new
Marriott property in the Canary Wharf
area. While a bit outside the
center of London, it proved to be a
lovely experience overall with easy
transportation access.
Our unlimited BritRail pass (with
children 15 and under traveling for free!) allowed us to move
about with ease to almost anywhere we
wanted as we made our way to
Stratford Upon Avon. We were inspired by
Shakespeare's home town and laughed
through our attempt at rowing on the Avon
River. We enjoyed the historical homes and
informative bus tour. We stayed at a charming B&B
where the owner made a home-made
birthday cake and then we moved onto
Bath for Roman history, a bizarre night
tour, beautiful Georgian architecture
and a drab, but
well located Hilton hotel. The
trip finished up in Cardiff, Wales with
a stay at a lovely
Marriott. This vibrant city, where
Anna's favorite show (Dr. Who) is
filmed, showcases an
impressive Norman-built castle in the
center of town, great shopping and
modern architecture. A side trip
to see the countryside and Dylan Thomas'
hometown of Swansea
proved to be a memorable day.
Flying Virgin Atlantic non-stop from
Orlando was an excellent experience
especially in premium economy on the
return trip. We sat upstairs on
the 747 with upgraded meal service,
large and comfortable seats, attentive
flight attendants and expedited luggage
and security lines. Our top memories were
definitely made by the locals
we met and who helped us along the way,
seeing Blood Brothers on the West End in
London (still great after over 20 years
on stage) and learning ever more about the history
of the UK with an anglophile and
inquisitive teen in
tow.
