We`ll be traveling all over and visiting places like Rydal Mount (home of William Wordsworth), Rievaulx, York Minster, Shakespeare`s Birthplace, Warwick Castle, Oxford University, Georgian Bath, Jane Austen Centre, Salisbury Cathedral, Bodiam Castle, The Imperial War Museum, the Globe Theatre, Tower of London, Fleet Street, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey and okay I shall stop here because the list is pretty darn long. Heh.
And because it`s Shakespeare Festival this year, England will be performing all 37 of his plays. We`ll be catching some of them. Romeo & Juliet and Phantom Of The Opera! :))) We`ll get to see how the text is performed and the transformation of words into action. Literature students out there feeling a tinge of jealousy yet? =)
AND. This was completely accidental. I found out that the itinerary states that on the 11th, we can have the afternoon free to explore London, and it so happen that BON JOVI IS PERFORMING IN LONDON ON THIS DAY IN THE AFTERNOON. I know, Perfecto, right? I asked Mr.Rozells and he said he`ll get back to me about that ASAP, so I`m still waiting for approval. For all you know he might be interested in it as well ha.Ahhh. Two weeks out of this god-forsaken place we call home. I really can`t wait to go to England and take in the people, the religion, the rich culture, the brilliant architecture, their awe-inspiring literature and the powerful history behind this country, which I believe, all of which can spellbound you with its blinding charisma. :)))
I can almost imagine myself walking along river Thames, taking in all the sights and sounds, or up in the London Eye, admiring the magnificent view laid out in front of me; scenery so picturesque it might well have been from a postcard, or shopping in Camden, scouring for cheap and exotic finds like velvety gothic jackets and Indian bangles right now.
I AM SO TERRIBLY EXCITED.
Hell I might even come back with a cockney accent.
