Chateau Musee rooftop in Dieppe, France


meh LAZY and damn busy with 4 essays due by monday. so, yay.
anyhoozlebeez, here are some LONG overdue pix. hope you remember the password!

went to Tate Britain for the Whistler/Turner/Monet exhibition and words cannot begin to describe the paintings i saw there. they were SO beautiful. im very disappointed i didnt try to sneak some pictures but since it was the last weekend before closing, it was PACKED to capacity. ah well, some other time...maybe at the louvre when i go to paris.

Stratford-upon-Avon for Shakespeare's Twelfth Night at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre

Glyndebourne for Mozart's The Magic Flute. It was unbelievable! and we got a backstage tour ;)

Windsor Castle was tastfully decorated with LOTS of gold (hard to believe it was tasteful eh?), and also kinda boring. someone saw the Queen, Charles, Camilla....but I didnt. and we werent allowed in the Royal residences cuz Her Majesty is a bit fussy about visitors :P

WHOOO!! Dieppe trip was AWESOME and made me realize how sucktastic my French is. I miss pain au chocolats

Westminster Palace - sorry I couldnt get more pics but they prolly woulda chopped off my arm if i had tried (or something similar). The House of Commons/Lords part of it was cool, and nicely air conditioned. Churchill's toe was rubbed to a high shine.

Portsmouth Dockyard for the "Trafalgar Experience". well, the ship was cool/scary/smelly and had SHORT ceilings (yes i DO realize it was a ship but people musta been VERY short back then) - although Nelson was only 4'11 so there you go.

finally, Stonehenge and Salisbury trip.
was very disappointed that i couldnt actually go touch the rocks at stonehenge, or wont be there for summer solstice

exam time already......................
