Bournemouth; Visit of the Oceanarium ( 8$ ), some castles and pier.

And I come back after all of this.

I plan to do my pictures on Sunday... I guess I should have plenty of times for that.. no movie but maybe a play (like a musical at one night), a night walk for sure and thursday or Friday at Bournemouth... wednesday for straightly to the Hostel and start a museum if I may...if I am done.. another museum or Mme Thussaud's Saturday museum or walking... and I guess on Sunday (after all the pictures I may be able to talk some walks around the city too... Some of those things to visit won't happen... but hey... I'll still have a 'short' week to pass in London.

Things I want to see (or do) 2 - Lincoln's Inn Field

May update, part 1

Ok so I thought I would lost the possibility of doing my LT ( My Visa card had expired) But I was told that I could ask again (a re-emission) for my visa, I just need to pay some more off of it. The planes tickets are out and about, but then I can't buy them yet... (no visa card!) BUT I think everything will be fine!
*My travel pal asked me to go to France for a 3 weeks getway and sightseeing... she doesn't know that I am planning this, first!*
I will get to other stuff but this very afternoon I will write a list of things to see and do while in England... it will be just some sort of raw list that I might take some off until I do my LT
I am still ever so excited, sometimes I find myself to reminisce of the earlier trip and how it will be exciting and fun to do... I need to stop babblering about it! I think people will be very tired of hearing me
I am planning some sweet revenge on Sam, like two weeks prior to my departure ( or even a month, if I can't hold it any longer), I'll tell her about it... but I'll also specify that I want to do it alone and that if she wants she is more than welcomed to (not) follow me *jokes* No really she could, just not all the way!
I don't know if I have mentioned it earlier (entry) but I found on Avatar's yahoo.com that we could send postcards...it's very fun, so I will send many (free) postcards on the net with me (let's say in the tube or, at a café!)
- I need to pay Sam! $$$
- My travel note book = Taken cared of
-Lists, lists and some more lists ( a souvenir list, to see what I'll bring back for friends)
-Money count $$$
-Allo Stop Pass... (soon, very soon)
-I need a 'quickpod' !!

Things that I want to see (or do) 1- Millenium Bridge (it actually looks very good at night! I didn't know so.

An Early Start

Alright, so I thought, instead of keeping myself thinking about the past, I should focus on the future. So I am starting this blog about my next london trip (LT) which should happen around Halloween... ( I JUST realised I would be missing Halloween, *laughs*) So I will put out all of my doings, and farings around when I will be there (which might happened just a little afterwards when I'll be back home/QC. But I think I might be able to put out an entry or two...

I will also keep you updated on my money, my plans and else (all LT related of course) all the way

OHHH and by the way, this trip is my first completely alone... I wanted to go to Paris... but since I will be completely on my own, I kinda prefered to go some place known to me... ok I KNOW I will freak out when I get down the airplane... or just on my way to the plane, but still... I want to accomplish this by myself!

Things that need to be done:
-Buy an adapter for my Ipod
-Buy a travel notebook
-Makes numerous lists (up until OCT-NOV)
-Carefully count, and recount my money
-Get my 'Allo-Stop' pass
...
