Castles & Palaces - Movies & TV
If you were one of the 60+ million people who binge-watched Bridgerton on Netflix, you may find yourself dreaming about afternoon teas in lush drawing rooms, promenades in the park and showing your moves on the ballroom floor. The good news is…you can do a lot those things in London (once all of this passes obviously)
For when all this crazyness passes
You could never get bored in London. Even if it’s your 265th visit, and you think you’ve seen and done it all there will always be lesser known, unusual and quirky things to do in the UK capital.
Where else can you see slightly inaccurate dinosaur statues, climb the roof of an arena, visit an underground Roman temple or dine in a tube carriage?
I don’t know about you, but I’m done with January. It’s cold, it gets dark early and it’s too easy to spend all day in bed. Top it off with a pandemic lockdown and I can’t wait to say goodbye to the first month of the year.
The Seven Sisters are seven mighty chalk cliffs on the coastline between Eastbourne and Seaford that form a very popular walking route.
I walked it a while ago. I did cheat a bit as I walked from Eastbourne to Belle Tout, stayed the night in the Belle Tout Lighthouse and then walked from there to Seaford. Walking it in one go is doable and depending on your pace it should take between 4 and 6 hours. There are also a few shortcuts you can take.
We can’t travel – yet, but to make do I’ve been doing one of those cliché things where I travel in my mind by going through photos of my old trips. And this inspired me to put together the next instalment of Evenings In …,this time covering the Amsterdam Light Festival I visited a few editions ago.
