Oh Goodness!

Hello again!
I am still alive, contrary to popular belief. It has been quite some time since I did anything with this blog and for that I apologize. I have been and will be apologizing a lot for this as I don't forget about the blog, but I get ridiculously lazy and refuse to post what I have been doing. Oh and well I wasn't being very adventurous either. Whoops!
Over the last few months I only took two trips and they go as follows:
Stratford upon Avon: I went for a day and enjoyed it. The weather was wonderful and sunny. I spent most of the time wandering around with a group of girls from California looking at things that had to do with Shakespeare. You know, stuff like, his birthplace and house and such. Oh and I saw the Holy Trinity Church where his bones are. Exciting!
London: I went for a long weekend to meet the Provost of the UC's. It was nice, but I was a little disappointed with my traveling companion as she was very hasty in going through the British Museum and was often late. Overall though it was a good experience. I learned that there can be some awful hostels that offer cold showers and rude staff and that you need to choose traveling companions very carefully or it will make enjoying your trip difficult.
And, well, that is it in a quick little nutshell!
Below are a few pictures from my day in Stratford. Alas, I forgot my camera when I went to London, so there are no pictures!
