In just a couple of days I will travel to England for the first time in my life -- which is kind of amazing given that I have studied British Literature for decades. Other destinations had priority -- Ireland, Germany, Turkey. But this is a trip just for me which I am taking alone without family or friends. Why? To learn and to rejuvenate. To see and experience. To visit and remember all the places I have imagined for these long years.
Tentative Schedule
First day: find my B & B near Trafalgar Square
Second day: explore London -- Globe Theater? The Tower? Westminster Cathedral? Parliament?
Third day: Canterbury, the destination of Chaucer's Pilgrims
Fourth day: more London
Fifth day: travel to Cambridge
Sixth day until twelfth day: learning art history
Twelfth day: return to London to a hotel
Thirteenth day: fly back to States
And find two knitting shops in order to find presents for my mom, sisiter, and a dear friend.
