Europe Day 35 - Part Final!

The last part of the last day in Europe!

What a trip!

I’m in the beginning stages of plotting my next trip, but I have to wait to see how some Life Things pan out before planning in earnest.

Anyway, finishing up at the British Museum :D

When I took this, I thought I might use it as a desktop background.

It’s a close up on a gold cloak.

The LAST batch of photos!

Europe Day 35 - Part Four

Still working on the British Museum!

Just a little more Egypt, then some other stuff!

Europe Day 35 - Part Three

Still at the British Museum!

In Egypt now :D

This is Nebamun. He is hunting.

More Egypt!

Europe Day 35 - Part Two

So, British Museum!
I guess I took a lot of pictures.



Pocket watches!

More museum pics

Europe Day 35 - Part One

Last full day in Europe ;_;

We left our hotel in Bath in the morning, though here are some pics from the window:

Onto London!

Europe Day 34 - Part Five

End of the day! So after I dropped my gramma off back at the hotel, she was done walking for the day, I changed into my Regency!

I rushed into putting it on, because back at the Assembly Rooms, the ticket was good for one admission, but I talked to the front desk and explained I’d brought this dress could I pleeeease come back? And she said okay. And they close at 5, and it was nearing 4.

WELL. Actually the last admission is at 4, and they’d closed and locked the doors, from the outside, already!

So I wasn’t able to get any pics in the actual assembly room. Which was disappointing, but then I also realized I had no one to take the picture anyway.

So then my sister and I met at our prearranged meeting spot at 5 and headed to the Royal Crescent for pictures!

I thought this dress would cover my shoes, whoops!

More pics!

Europe Day 34 - Part Four

Why hello there Jane Austen Centre!

Europe Day 34 - Part Three

So we left the costume portion of the museum, which was sort of a fun adventure (getting there too) because of it being an old building, the wheelchair could only go a specific way, which was like through their storage area.

To the Assembly Rooms!

Europe Day 34 - Part Two

Still at the Museum of Costume, in Bath~

REGENCY ROOM

I really like the sleeve and bodice detailing on this!

Even More Dress Pics (not just Regency though)

Europe Day 34 - Part One

Another multi-parter, sorry. Not really.

Anyway, the plans for Bath were made before it was fully realized how not-very-mobile my gramma is. Also she thinks she can do more than she can, until she goes to do it.

So, in general, Bath is a very walkable city. Not so much for her! So plans ended up changing.

Anyway, so, first stop was The Museum of Costume, which is also the Assembly Rooms.

You can see here, it’s really not that long of a walk. However, it’s all uphill, and cobblestones, and my gramma had some problems with it. So we were so thankful when we got there, that they were able to provide a wheelchair!

I took quite a few pictures, though not as many as I thought I did. The lighting indoors was very dim, to preserve the fabrics I’m sure. That, combined with the glass of the display cases and my none-too-steady hands, resulted in some shoddy pictures, alas. I still uploaded most of them to my flickr, but I’ll just post my favourites here.

Historical dress, hurrah!

Europe Day 33

Leaving Ireland day!

This day was hectic and not fun.

But here are some pics from actually the previous night.

This was taken standing in the road in front of our B&B.

B&B pics and travel stories

Europe Day Six! And Seven. And Eight!

Three days at once! Oh my. It sounds daunting, but it isn't really.

Monday, August 27th, I left England for Germany~

So it was a bit of a short day.

Europe Day Five (with a smidge of Day Four)

Augh whoops, I haven't posted about my trip for over a month! I'm only on Day Five ;_;

I'm determined to actually post about this trip though (which... is what I said about India, three years ago, and Japan, two years ago....).

So anyway.

Time change and all means my camera thought something that was this day was actually the previous night.



I'm.... running.
Because it's the Who thing to do.


Rest of the night aaand... Clothes day!

Europe Day Three - Part One & Day Four

Didn't take as many pictures these days, so I can squeeze it into one entry!

So after we went back and ate delicious cheese and bread and so on, aralias and I headed out again.



We went to the British Museum!

Europe Day Three - Part One

Bah I am the slowest at uploading photos/updating.
But hey! At least I'm doing it! Remember India? No? Yeeeeah, that's 'cause I only posted once >.>
So, doing better already!

aralias is a wonderful host, she gave me tea in the morning and really, what more could you ask for?

But there was!
More I mean 8D



Her and X took me to Borough Market!

Locals! If we have the equivalent here, I need to know, because I need to go there every day.

Foooood...
