My Travels Around The World
August 2018

Day 9: Buckingham Palace, and a Tour for Muggles
It's Tuesday, this is my last day in London. Did it on foot for the most part and it was my 2nd highest walking of [...]
Day 8: St. Paul’s Cathedral and Warner Bros Harry Potter Studios
I started Monday with a good 7 hours of sleep, waking around 5am. I finished the blog and went in search of breakfast. This is [...]
Day 7: York

This was one of those days when it wasn't always fun to travel, but it turned out great in the end, which makes me appreciate [...]
Day 5: Paris, Part 4 – Meandering in Montmartre

Pre-Departure and General Updates
Are you ready? Next Saturday, August 18, I have a 6:30am flight from SFO to Heathrow. As is now my custom, this is an introductory [...]

This is a Test
Unlike prior "test posts" which literally only 3 people saw on my request, this is a Real Test, and an announcement of sorts. I've finally [...]
Introduction to my Travel blogs
Only in my wildest dreams did it occur to me that I may one day do a lot of traveling. Due primarily to the randomness [...]
