NaBloPoMo

With great pain and effort, I managed topost 31 blogs in 31 days...


What went well

It kept me thinking and wanting to complete a post every day!

What I learned

Blogging is really hard daily....and if you have a large number of people who are regular readers its even harder....I concluded its not my cup of tea to blog daily also not capable of doing justice to a large audience.
At the same time I thank the dozen individuals who stopped by my blog and left comments...thanks from the bottom of my heart...

What could be done better?

Be more organised and may be follow a theme....

Yet another view I disliked the idea of keeping in touch with real people I know only through blogs..I rather make that call and make that time and have a chat!..but its great to keep up with people you havent really met and still gets a peep into their lives.




Here is a summary of what I blogged about in 31 days

Camden Market (30 of 31)



Camden Town overflows with a variety of colourful markets, shops, restaurants, bars, pubs, clubs, theatres and cinemas. The town attracts enormous crowds of Londoners and tourists ( a lot of Westerners I would say )alike.

I got to visit as my friend from Taipei had it in highly recommended list .If you have lived in India or anywhere in Asia these kind of markets are quite common....so I would give it a complete miss.....It was definitely crowded and buzzing with life...but not somthing I would like to do when in London!...

Windsor Castle (29 of 31)


We had a great trip to Windsor Castle with a friend visitng from Taipei....This is a "London - Must See" list for all my friends who like to visit London as a tourist.

Hiighlights were ofcourse The Queens Doll House, The State Apartments and The St George's Chapel!

I am Poem ( 28 of 31)

Here is a poem written by Tanya when she was 8 years old on a class assignment!

I am fun loving and clumsy

I wonder what I will be when I grow up
I hear rain pouring and filling the ground with puddles
I see Disney Channel original movies
I want a cell phone of my own
I am fun loving and clumsy

I pretend to be asleep
I feel like I need to increase weight
I touch the melting,slimy,unhealthy chocolate
I worry if I fail my exams
I cry when I am lonely
I am fun loving and clumsy

I understand that I am annoying to my sister
I say that someday I will see the Lord
I dream about wonderful things that happen to me
I try to be careful
I hope that I am perfect some day
I am fun loving and clumsy

Wales - Itinerary (27 of 31)

I think its always useful to have itinerary of a trip ...which will be helpful to future travellers.

If we had done some more research and detailed planning we could have covered one more attraction in the limited time.

Day 1 - 1 PM Arrival at Wales

King Arthurs Labyrinth
Corris Craft Centre
Dinner at Victoria Inn

Day 2

SnowDon Railway Adventure (book early to avail 50% discount - also it saves you waiting time)(If you have done some exotic rail trips like visiting Hakone..I would give this a skip do the electric Mountain.)
National Slate Museum
Harlech Castle
Caernarfon Castle
Beach ( very close to the castle and Royal St David Golf Club) cant remember the name they had on the sign board (Traech Beach)
Dinner at Castle Restaurant

Day 3

Slate LLechwood Caverns
Swallow Waterfall
Shopping at Anna Davies
Departure 1 PM
