calzephyrNormally I would say if I haven't posted to LJ or DW in over a week, call the police, something is wrong! However, nothing was wrong--we simply went on our first proper vacation since 2019.
Trip planning began in January as travelling to the UK is nothing like travelling to the US. The flights, although direct, are fewer and we didn't know what wanted to see. Clearly, there's too much to see even in a lifetime, so we made a list and plotted it on Google Maps. Our top attractions were Bletchley Park and the British museum and then everything else was a bonus. My UK coworkers told me to plan to do two things a day and they were so right. London is a big city and many things we plotted where far away from each other. The humidity is also unusual for us from coming from dry, higher altitudes.
London is so busy and visually overstimulating. We think we're big because we're 1.2 million people--oh how naive we were! Anyhow, I'm going to organize all my thoughts and make some posts about it and process my pictures. I hope all y'all out there in journal have a great week ahead!
