Trip to Bath and Stonehenge - Aug 25
Left Reading at 613am and got to Bath when it was just waking up at 7am. Took a stroll along its cobbled streets which were still empty of cars and people. Lovely city. Very small with only 80 thousand people.
It's a National Heritage city and protected which is a good thing. I hope we'll be able to do the same with some areas at least in the Philippines.
Stonehenge was great. Can't imagine how and why it was created. The mysticism behind it is mind-boggling! And you can feel the energy! Amazing!
Trip to Reading - Aug 24
Took a trip to Reading last August 24 to watch the UPCC perform and to meet up with a friend, Camila (barkada of Mia), who's part of the group.
Little did I know that it was also the start of the Reading Music Festival so waves and waves of students were there. Almost all hotels were fully booked (esp the budget hotels). Argh! But I managed to find one right at the city center. The nice lady at the reception (thanks to her manager) allowed me to stay at the George Hotel for the weekend rate (which is 30% cheaper than the weekday rate). I bit over my budget, but I didn't want to sleep on the streets. =) Also, the hotel I stayed in was even part of the Heritage Tour! Apparently it's over 300 years old!
Reading is a nice town. I did the "Heritage Walking Tour" around the city. Nice parks and gardens. The new mall was also well designed.
Almost studied here instead of Manchester.
UPCC in Reading
Funny that the first time I got to watch Camila and the UPCC was in Reading, UK! It was a good concert I think the audience enjoyed it very much.
Daming solo shots ni Camila. Hehe...
See you in Manila in November Cams!
