Welcome to London
London, England is city that marries a long tradition and history with 21st century modernity, and this vibe was evident in what we were able to do and see during our four-day stay. Home to museums, famous landmarks and palaces, world-class shopping and dining, there is much to see and experience in Great Britain's capital.
The New Forest National Park
The United Kingdom is home to 15 designated National Parks, areas of natural beauty and historic or cultural significance. Being an American National Parks lover, I was pleasantly surprised to find that while in Hampshire, we would be staying within one of the newer English national parks: New Forest National Park. At the end of this post is a bonus recipe for bread pudding.
Prehistoric History: Stonehenge
Our first full day in England was spent at prehistoric Stonehenge and in Salisbury. Stonehenge is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site and it thought to have been built in during the later part of the Neolithic Era and the Bronze Age between 3000 and 1250 BC. Today, it stands, millennia later, as a testament to human ingenuity.
London and Beyond: Our Great British Adventure
This is the first in a thirteen part series on our Great British Adventure. The series will take us from Lymington along the Hampshire coast to Somerset to Oxford to London. It was definitely an adventure to remember.
