Blog: Sophie's World - 12 January 2010
Still summarizing 2009, here – in no particular order – are my favourite sleeps of last year: 1. In February/March, I spent a long weekend in London and got a very good deal at Rydges Kensington Plaza on Gloucester Road. Nice hotel in a great location – a short walking distance from the museums, Hyde [...]12 fave hotels of 2009 is a post from: Sophie's World

Riding the Rails in Europe
Blog: Nomadic Matt's Travel Site - 13 November 2009
One of the highlights of my recent trip to Europe was all the train travel I did. Using my Eurail pass, I rode across the continent through the amazing scenery. In the past, I had done limited train travel but, usually my travel plans are always random, so I typically jet set around Europe on [...]

Baltic Boating Part 2: Stockholm
Blog: Bec and John in the UK - 26 July 2009
By Day 3 of our 12-day cruise, we were well into the swing of cruising. Breakfasts and lunches would be taken at the Windjammer Buffet on deck 11, with the eating interspersed with table tennis, billiards or Scrabble contests, or one of the many shipboard activities constantly on offer.

One lap around a relatively small H&M store had the hot girl count at 23 - we were in the store for a total of three minutes... So what else did we do?
