Kelly and I just booked plane tickets to the U.K.! We fly out May 14th and return May 31st. Kelly was eager to go on another trip before she started back to school for her Master’s degree, and although I’m facing unemployment in my very near future, the tickets were the right price ($691 each, round trip) so we figured "what the heck!"
The plan is to start off in the Exeter area (in the south west of England) to visit our friends Joanna and David. Exeter is in Devon county, near Cornwall, and for those of you who know your Monty Python "Coronworl… ah yes know Coronworl very well. Went to school there, mother and father live there." (Cycling Tour sketch)
After that we’ll drive north through England to Edinburgh Scotland, taking our time along the way to visit Stonehenge, Bath, and who knows where else. Then, on the way back we’ll visit York and the surrounding area, ending back at London.
More details to come as the time draws near, but that’s the big news for now.
