A Guide to using the archives

Obviously I have been back from my amazing trip for quite some time now, but I wanted just to type a quick guide to the archives to make this blog useful for anyone looking for information on a specific location. This blog got very sentimental and mushy towards the end but the further you back, the more travel journalism useful style it all is! The archive links are located down on the sidebar.

Check out January 2006 for;
London tourist sites like Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Harrods as well as Windsor and some London money saving tips

February '06 has the goods on;
Greenwich, Oxford, Camden Markets

March '06 checks out;
Portobello Road Markets/Notting Hill, and some London snapshots

April '06 spills the beans on;
Bath, Brighton and Hampton Court Palace + some of the really touristy things my mum made me do when she visited like go to Madame Toussauds and the London Eye

May '06 is where it gets crazy...
See some Paris snapshots, hear about the crazy prices at Eurodisney... then off we head to Lithuania (Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipeda) and Riga in Latvia. We then jump down to Warsaw in Poland.

June '06 sees the Eastern Europe express continue chugging onward...
Kick on down to Krakow, hear about the Salt Mines and Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camps, whizz over to Wroclaw, then jump down to Budapest in Hungary. We then go to Cesky Krumlov and Prague in the Czech Republic, back to Budapest (read to find out why) and then through Vienna and Salzburg in Austria. Then, somehow I got to Madrid in Spain, via Geneva. Toledo was also examined as the month drew to a close. Wow, busy!

In July '06
Valencia and Barcelona were enjoyed, then Florence, Pisa, Venice and Rome in fair Italy were also enjoyed despite the Italians winning the football. We then swung by Germany, staying with a friend in the Black Forest and checking out Lake Konstanz before stopping for a beer or two in Munich before heading back to London where the whole ordeal began.

That's just a brief summary so if anyone out there is looking for info about a specific place you know where to look in the archives.

If you like this blog, send me money so I can go travelling again and write more!

when you cross the cleveland bodyrubs street, when you hop on from taxi to taxi, when there’s glazed frost on the pavement, and so on.
