Thursday. British Museum, Tower of London. We made plans to go to the British Museum in the morning, then go do other stuff the rest of the day. Unfortunately, teh British Museum is kind of incredible, so we pretty much spent all day there. There’s maybe something that makes you feel guilty being there, seeing […]

In the interest of catching up, here’s not very much info. Dad and I met last Wednesday! I’m nearly a week behind! Crap! First day in London we basically just walked around. A lot. And took some city buses around, which I like. Here are pictures.

Man, playing catch-up is the worst. Oh well. So my second day in Cardiff was actually a lot like my first, as it consisted of just kinda walking around, taking photos, being cool, etc. I spent the day with an Australian guy from the hostel, and it’s always great having someone to wander around with. […]

You guys, I’m a machine today! TWo posts, now I’ll only be two or three days behind. But, I’m sleepy, so limited words. Cardiff, Sunday. Hostel, wander around, take photos, have snacks, etc. Find bar with punk show, enjoy show, enjoy bands, great chats, mutual friends, small world, etc. Got invited to go to a […]

School’s out, I’m on my way to Scotland, and, as usual, playing catch-up with photos.  Not much in the way of interesting photos, unfortunately.  Don’t worry though- I’m not gonna let that stop me from posting them. Unfortunately, some of the more notable events of the past weekend went undocumented.  The true Champion of America […]

This probably doesn’t deserve an entire post, but whatever. I went to this bar last week, where I had some beers with some friendly local guys. They organized an open mic night at the bar Wednesday nights, and they suggested I come by next time. As a rule, I think open mic nights are terrible, […]

So Caernarfon is about… idk, maybe 40 minutes away, probably less. It’s most well known for a big Edwardian castle, but also has a reputation as being where the bar is that has been recommended to me three different times by three different people. The castle was built in 1283 and Caernarfon became Edward ?s […]

View Day in Snowdonia in a larger map Well. I finally decided to do it. Mount Snowdon, aka Yr Wyddfa, is the highest peak in England & Wales, and it sits in the middle of a pretty big national park named Snowdonia.   So that’s pretty cool.  (Incidentally, Wales is about the size of New […]

The good news is that I’ve been busy enough to not want to spend a ton of time documenting stuff.  The bad news is that the less often I stop to document stuff, the less I ultimately document, etc.  Anyhow, I’m doing laundry again today, so I thought I would take some time to post […]

Hi friends, IF you’re reading this, you will have probably noticed mounting evidence that I’m not in DC this summer. Why not? Well, it gets quite hot in DC in the summer time, and I’m fancy & I don’t like the heat, etc. so I came to the UK. So the summer plan, in bullets: […]
