Editor's Pick Award

Hello,

My name is Kathy and my traveling companion's name is Marilee.  We try and take a long vacation every other year and in 2006 we're off to England for 3 weeks.  Why England?  Ancestors, gardens, history and we speak the language (after a fashion).

After months of planning and anticipation our general itinerary is as follows:

• Canterbury
• Rye
• Salisbury
• London
• Cambridge
• Bath
• Cotswolds
• Windsor

I've tried to structure the entries with the practical information at the top and personal impressions following.  I've been in corporate America for a number of years and between that and Hollywood I've lost any ability I ever had to write in active voice.  Hopefully, I won't be too boring!

We'll be hiring a car for the first and last weeks of our trip and I hope driving on the left isn't too challenging.  We'll find out.....
