We're now in London! Kind of hard to believe time is going by so quickly but it's been an amazing experience. Hope things are well for those of you reading this.
It's been a while since I was able to get on and post a blog...let me just say this week has been full of technological issues for me. My adapter stopped working, and then after I resolved that matter my computer refused to connect to the Internet at our hotel in Stratford...it takes me too long to write a blog to have done so while borrowing other people's computers to write blogs. Regardless my computer now works with the WiFi in the hotel in London so we're good.
Alrighty. We've been really busy - visited with NHS district nurses, visited Shakespeare's grave, Shakespeare's birthplace, Anne Hathaway's cottage, Kenilworth Castle, Warwick Castle, Coventry Cathedral, Embley (one of Florence Nightingale's homes), Florence Nightingale's grave, Christ Church College at Oxford University and done many other interesting and exciting things. Today we visited Bath and Stonehenge before driving to London.
I have really enjoyed so many aspects of this trip. It was really kind of cool to be able to visit Christ Church College at Oxford, especially with parts of the Harry Potter movies having been filmed there. I also really enjoyed visiting Warwick Castle, that was somewhat amazing when I thought about how long ago work on that castle began. I had a similar feeling today when we were at the Roman Baths in Bath - that some of those structures were built as early as 75 AD is amazing to me. I suppose a better example of this is Stonehenge, considering the sheer amount of time that those gigantic rocks have been there and how long it took to build Stonehenge.
Photos and information soon!
