Our last day! We spent our time in Regents Park and Hyde Park, then biked around the city on London’s “cycle superhighway.” We talked about highlights of our trip and what we’ve learned about ourselves and each other. Zoe: This being my first time in Europe, I loved exploring all the new places. Seeing how […]
Today we went on the famous Sandeman Walking Tour. Our tour guide’s name was Becky, and she was very peppy. We explored sections of London, and even went by the Buckingham Palace and saw a member of the royal family go by. Then we visited Saint James’s Park, voted the most picturesque park in England. […]
This morning we woke up later than usual, and had cereal and toast for breakfast. The sun quickly rose up and it got really hot. So Henry and I decided to have a water ballon fight with David. We frantically filled up and chased each other around, getting soaked and laughing while the girls watched […]

We woke up very early and made cinnamon toast for breakfast. Then we set off into the English countryside, where we immediately got lost as there are no street signs anywhere. We rode up and down the hills before a nice lady guided us back on track. We had lunch and took a short nap […]
Back in England! After getting off the ferry, we biked just under 40 miles to a campsite in Sudbury. Keeping a steady pace, and only “exploring the suburbs” (getting lost) once, we arrived at the campsite in the early afternoon. This allowed us to set up camp and take a nice nap before dinner. Dinner […]
Today, we awoke from our camping spot by the ocean and packed up quickly. We ate our breakfast on the beach, and then slowly made our way into the water and relaxed. There were a LOT of dogs that passed by, and many of them came up to say hi. We also saw a very […]
We woke up bright and early in Amsterdam. David made eggs and grilled cheeses in the park and we went to the Anne Frank Museum afterwards. It was very emotional and I could only imagine what it was like for her and her family. Then, we set off to our halfway journey to the English […]
We spent the majority of the day walking through the rooms of the Rijksmuseum, following clues and instructions for an escape the room game (although it was really a break into the room game). The ultimate goal of the game was to break into a room and find the secret message, but first we had […]
Today we woke up at a crisp 7:30. Setting off to buy breakfast, we navigated the jungle of bikes that is Amsterdam. After consuming a filling meal of stroopwaffles, clementines, chocolate croissants, and cereal, we made our way to the front of a royal palace for the Sandeman Tour. It wasn’t as good as the […]
