The Winsome White Mountains Part 2

I was awake bright and early for my second day of adventure - a downside of moving forward a time zone and still on a work routine. I didn't mind terribly because it gave me a chance to work away at a few things, prepare for the day, and not feel rushed for my first destination. I was … Continue reading The Winsome White Mountains Part 2

Day 6 – Edinburgh, Balloch, Glasgow, Leamington Spa, and Warwick

Tuesday, April 11, 2017 I woke up quite early which was wonderful because it gave me a chance to enjoy my lovely room just that much longer (crazy, huh?). There was a French press coffee maker so I finally had a chance to sit back with my book and a cup of coffee and read … Continue reading Day 6 – Edinburgh, Balloch, Glasgow, Leamington Spa, and Warwick
