how should I occupy myself for two weeks in the UK?

[dbskyler]

I'm struggling with RL a little bit right now, so I am turning to more fun things to think about. And what could be more fun to think about than my upcoming trip to London to see David Tennant and Catherine Tate in Much Ado About Nothing?

I'm thinking that I'll spend around two weeks in the UK total. Obviously a few days of that will be London. This may also be the trip where I finally make it to Penzance! And yes, I freely admit that 95% of my desire to go to Penzance is the G&S operetta, but I've heard that Cornwall is nice to visit, too. Besides, on my last trip I took a photo of the "Ealing" sign when we passed through the station on the train, and the person I was traveling with asked me what I was photographing, and I had to lie and say I saw something out the window. But of course, it was really about documenting that I had been through Ealing, setting of Sarah Jane Adventures! Maybe I should try for South Croydon this time? ; )

So, flist! I'm in the market for suggestions. Where else should I go? What should I do? What should I not miss? I will be there in early July, in case that makes a difference for your suggestions.

Oh... I had a feeling I had gone on about Aber. It is lovely, but it's a long way to go - it is one of the most inconvenient places to get to in the country. But anywhere in Mid or West Wales I love. Cornwall isn't dissimilar in terms of scenery, or Devon.

I'm sure you'll have a great time wherever you go - just getting about, seeing somewhere new is part of the fun, isn't it?

Very true! I might leave some time completely free so I can go for a wander to wherever the mood strikes me at the moment, booking lodging along the way.

I'd definitely like to see Aber someday, but maybe not this time. We'll see! I did make it to Snowdonia on my last trip, but I was still pretty firmly in North Wales.

Funnily enough, I've never made it to North Wales.... :-)
