England...by aberkok

At long last, here are just a few (we have a couple hundred more) of the photos we took from our trip to England. It was a honey moon of sorts! Without further ado...the pics. First up...London (of course):

The Tower of London tour...presented by Mr. Beefeater


Outside the British Museum. This amazing museum was free and we got a lot of great pics of some of the exhibits.


Can't remember what this was...anyone?


Freddie!


If you don't know what this is, you probably won't care. I had no idea it was real!! Didn't have time to go to Hogwart's though.


This is just outside Charing Cross station


Next are three shots from beautiful Cambridge:






Next we went to Lewes, where I went to school 11 years ago. Included in the next batch are some pics of me at my old school with friend Richard:






A day trip to Brighton - a pic of the burnt down old pier from the new one:




Our next main stop was Warwick, where there's not a whole lot except for a big stinkin' castle!


A flintlock grenade launcher for the TFP Weaponry crowd:






The world's largest Trebuchet:


An artsy shot of some keys in the castle:






Our next stop was in Edale. A tiny town at the south end of the Pennine Trail which leads to Scotland. This is in the heart of the Peak District which is supposed to be the most scenic part of the country. When people think of English countryside, this is it! First up, our B & B...who is that geek!?



The rest are from our hike over Mam-Tor the next day:













Finally, no cultural survey would be complete without an insight into a country's cuisine. Here are some of the crazy things Brits like to eat. This was taken at a train stop in Selby:



I hope you enjoyed our little trip to England. We certainly did. Goodboo!
