Two days from now I'll be going on vacation, and here are a few things I wish for.
I want
- the weather to be fine, dry and sunny, but not too hot. Chances are good, I had a look at the forecast. Looks like we'll be getting 20-25°C maximum, and perhaps a few drops of rain in London one day... so, almost perfect. Could be a bit warmer but, hey... it's the end of the summer, what do you expect?
- to be able to sleep (I'm not used to sharing a room, so it's gonna be a bit of a challenge for me).
- the flights to be troublefree, I wanna be able to enjoy them. Especially the flight back from Southampton to Düsseldorf, that's gonna be an adventure by itself :-)
- to get on with my sister, I don't want it to be awkward or stressed. Seven days together, 24/7... we're both not used to that. So here's hoping we won't get on each other's nerves
- Boscastle to be nothing like Penzance. I don't wanna feel as disappointed as I did last year.
And now for the things I wanna do/see:
I want
- to have a look at THAT Speedy's. 187 North Gower Street
- to see a celebrity, don't care who. But in London there has to be someone crossing our path, right?
- to sit on the steps on Trafalgar Square
- to go on a sightseeing tour by bus
- to sit on a bench on Leicester Square and gossip about passers-by like I used to do so many years ago
- the Harry Potter Tour to be good (the Warner Bros. Studio Tour) and worth it. I wanna have a look at my favorite hero's dungeons.
- to walk the South-West-Coast-Path from Boscastle to Tintagel in beautiful weather, so that I can enjoy the amazing landscape (preferably with no blisters on my feet afterwards)
- to explore Tintagel Castle
- to walk on a beach with my bare feet in the water
- to explore the Isle of Wight by a hired electric bike
- to go on the chairlift ride at The Needles Park
That's all I can think of for the moment. Now I have to start packing, color my hair, buy a few last-minute things... well, all that stuff.
Bye for now, I'm off!
