Since we had the morning free to do what we pleased, I decided that it would be a good idea to sleep in a little bit more than I had been on the trip so far, especially after my long night out. After finally rousing myself I went with some friends to a cafe called […]

Day 7: Wherefore Art Thou, Shakespeare
Fortunately we were only in that maze of a hotel for one night. We checked out of the hotel in the morning and went on a tour of Shakespeare’s birthplace near our hotel. We saw things like the school he attended when he was younger, the church he was buried in, and of course the […]
Reflecting
After having almost a three hour delay coming home yesterday, I am shocked that I managed to wake up early. I guess my brain is still on London time no matter how little sleep I get. During the delay, the flight home and this morning my mind has drifted back to this lovely trip. I […]
Liverpool Sick Day
I woke up feeling worse than I have in over a year. I’m pretty sure this was the result of a sinus infection, and man, it was brutal. I was absolutely miserable for our Beatles Tour. I wanted, more than anything, to stay in bed that day and not go outside. I could have watched […]
Day Seven: Liverpool
Liverpool contained the first hills I had seen in the UK. This may be a strange observation, but I noticed that every area in the UK that we’ve ventured to thus far had been relatively flat, except some small inclines in Windsor, but none too significant. We had to walk up hills for dinner, a […]
Day Seven: I drank four cups of English Breakfast tea today…
Our free morning could not have come at a better time than it did in Liverpool. Nothing felt better than waking up without an alarm and having time to do things at our own pace. Around 11:15, we ventured out to find a breakfast place because we just weren’t feeling the hotel breakfast. In our […]
Day Seven: Here Comes the Sun
Today’s adventures thankfully began a little later than normal. We had a free morning and so I happily slept in until 9 a.m. After this I went to a cute little breakfast spot next to our hotel. This was one of the best meals I have had so far this trip consisting of the best […]
Beatle Mania
I will admit I am not a Beatle’s fan. I knew that some days on the trip would not be as fun as others, and for me that was today. However, I do respect The Beatle’s and their influence on the world. As a One Direction fan, there were always comparisons to The Beatles and […]
Day 6: Shakespeare – The Man or the Myth?
Oh the beauty of Stratford-upon-Avon. I wish I had more than just an afternoon to explore this small town and do as much sight seeing as possible. It felt similar to Windsor in the fact that it is much smaller than London and has a lot more land and nature to take in. Of course, […]
Day 7: Brunch & The Beatles
For once, my day didn’t start early in the morning! We had the morning free, so I was able to sleep in and feel nice and refreshed for the day. I went to breakfast with Mya Burns and Maddy King at this cute cafe right outside our hotel called Rubens. I had a cinnamon and […]
