Celebrations in the Time of Covid
As the Covid19 pandemic wears on, birthday and graduation celebrations have looked significantly different from before. While there were some disappointments and tears, there have also been unexpected blessings- like pets being able to participate in graduation parades.
The End of the World as We Knew It
It has been nearly four weeks since we closed our schools, began a stay at home order, and slowly backed away from life as we knew it. While the apocalyptic feeling of four weeks ago has not subsided, we try to balance the despair with moments of joy.
Life in the Time of Coronavirus
With equal parts optimism and doom, the Cranky Camper addresses feelings of stress, fear, and opportunity as a result of the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic.
The London Pass
To help keep costs down, we utilized the London Pass with the Oyster travelcard to save on activities and transportation. We used it for admission into the Churchill War Rooms, Westminster Abbey, and more. Another advantage was that it included activities not originally on our itinerary, like the Shard, from which there are stunning views of the city at night.
