We left out of London this morning at 9:00 am to make it to Windsor for our tour of the castle and of the town. It was extra exciting because the queen was actually there. It was an hour drive and as soon as we got outside of the city, we met up with our […]

Day 3: Media Day
Today was the day we had all been waiting for… to finally not be jet lagged and it couldn’t have come at a better time. We had a full day of visiting media agencies on our schedule. Battenhall and Burson Cohn and Wolfe are the first agencies we got to experience in the United Kingdom. […]
Day 5: Off to See The Queen
We left our hotel in London early this morning and took an hour and a half coach ride to Windsor. Luckily I was able to sleep a little bit on the bus so I was ready to tour Windsor Castle! We had a tour guide lead us through a shopping center in Windsor, just outside […]
Influences of Windsor
The first day outside of London required a decent amount of traveling on a bus. First, we had to drive an hour to Windsor and then two hours from Windsor to Stratford Upon Avon. The Windsor Castle was a nice start to a relaxing day. The Windsor Castle was the most informative part of […]
Day 5: Goodbye London, Hello Windsor and Stratford-Upon-Avon
Friday, May 10, 2019 London was great, but moving to the next part of my adventure was so exciting. I was pretty tired (shocker I know) from celebrating Anna’s birthday, so the bus ride was a great time for me to take a nap. Windsor is such a charming area. It has cobblestone roads and […]
Day Five: Now Playing “On the Road Again”
Today’s journey began bright and early. We loaded up our luggage and got on the bus to leave London. It was bittersweet because I loved the city but was also excited to begin to see the English countryside. The bus ride took us out to Windsor Castle. Walking out of the bus and into the […]
Not today, bad vibes.
Gratitude should be included on every packing list. The ugly, nasty side of people is best left at home. Luckily, I am a card carrying member of the good vibes gang. The weather, however, is not influenced by my mindset. Rain decided to come and go throughout the day, leaving only once we got inside […]
Day 4: Last London Day
Today started out with a Starbucks run, only to find out that the drink sizes are not the same in the UK. A venti here in the UK is significantly smaller than the US version, much similar to the US size grande. After getting coffee and porridge (oatmeal), we headed off to start our long […]
Day 3: Alexa, play “Nice For What”
Alexa, play “Nice For What” by Drake. Everyone, literally everyone, that our group has encountered on this trip has treated us so kindly. Every interaction with locals, specifically with the individuals at our media visits, has been pleasant and positive. When we arrived at Battenhall’s office, cookies and water awaited us on the conference table. […]
Day 5: Goodbye London, hello Windsor
We left London this morning and headed out to Windsor Castle. We had a very knowledgeable tour guide that took us around the town before we headed onto the castle grounds. The grounds themselves were gorgeous and it was a really nice day for walking around. No pictures we’re allowed inside the castle or […]
