My husband and I go to cambridge and bury st. Edmonds a lot for their market days  and next paycheck we are going to either bath or stonehenge! And wales sometime before the baby is born
We reaaalllly love london though. Its an hour and a half drive, then we take a 30 minute train in and usually spend a day or weekend there. Theres so much to do! We both really love museums and shopping... so.... heaven!

Sweeeet! 
I actually went on a one day round trip of Stonehenge and Bath. I love Bath, it's so beautiful. 
I have to dig up my photos... they're on a CD somewhere... maybe at my parents' house? 
Ah yes, shopping in London. I spent almost all my money.

If you find the pictures, I wanna seeee!
There are a lot of group day trips available, but I dont want to have to keep up with a group (tendinitis in both feet and being almost 6 months pregnant has kind of slowed me down) and for long bus trips... well... I've got to pee at leeeast once an hour. It's very glamorous!!!
Really for us it was the forbidden planets comic and collectible shop... in one hour we had spent over £200 in that store. Alllll my tax return was spent that weekend haha

Ahhh that makes me wanna go to stonehenge even more!!!!
We're going to do a trip back to the States when Reorden is born. Hopefully my husband can use all of his accrued days of leave, which would give us over a month with our families! Then with a teeny tiny baby it'll be a bit before we leave the UK again... maybe next summer I can talk him into going to Italy. We were going to this year, but we had to get furniture and a car here and now we're prepping for the baby and the trip home sooooooo saying money is tight is an understatement!
Once the baby is bigger, though.... I will take alllllll the trips! All of them!

Nen it sounds like you are having a great time! I wish I can go on vacations like that but I cannot land a job and I am still in college. The moment I get out I am going to get either parttime or fulltime somewhere for more experience and save up for a grand vacation. ^^

I didn't really do much traveling since then. That trip was a present from my parents for my excellent results at uni.
They figured, since I decided to study English, the least they could do is send me to England.
I've been planning to go for a vacation with the bf, but yes, money is tight. We live in a screwed up country with an even worse economy.
On a brighter note, I might get to go to L.A. next year in July. The next International Youth Media Summit is going to be held there. The director of the NGO I'm volunteering for is actively working on getting us there, practically free of charge. I don't want to get too excited about it, but I am already planning on setting up a savings account for the trip.

Juggling all the travel plus trips back to the states will be difficult.

Isn't this funny? You're American and you want to go on a round trip of Europe and I, as a European, want to go to South America.
