Aboard Amtrak

Family

We finally boarded The Crescent at 5:30AM and we’re now slowly making progress toward NYC. We’re ensconced in our little roomette, too keyed up to sleep quite yet. The Dining Car will begin breakfast service in half an hour so we’ll probably just go get some food then snuggle down into our bunks and sleep the morning away. We’ll not make our connection in Penn Station and the next Northeast Regional is sold out but we’ll worry about that small detail later. For now we’re on our way, protected from the rain outside, with the promise of food and sleep ahead of us!

Underground at Charing Cross

Underground at Charing Cross

Our last day in London this trip we ventured underground on the Hidden London Charing Cross: Access All Areas Tour for a peek into the workings of The Underground a bit of its history and the uses of the Jubilee Line Charing Cross Station that no longer serves passengers but still has usefulness including as a filming location for movies including Skyfall and Paddington.

Simply Stonehenge 

Simply Stonehenge 

A half-day bus tour from London to Stonehenge gave us enough of an opportunity to gaze in awe at this ancient sacred monument, learn a little more about its history and construction and make us want to return for perhaps a more intimate experience.
