The third largest city in Denmark is called Aalborg and it is in the north of Jutland, the part of Denmark connected to Germany. Its two hours’ drive from my place so I don’t go there so often. The other day we went to a concert in their new concert hall called the House of Music at the harbor. […]
Guest blogger Mike Long on sightseeing with children
#WeekendCoffeeShare at Diana’s “PartTime Monster” If we were having coffee I would tell you that I got a big surprise this week. I was contacted by Mike Long with his blog AIM Long who like me is a Christian and who also likes to share experiences on travelling. He suggested that he guest blogs at my blog on travelling and […]
I would like to introduce you to my guest-blogger Mike with his blog “AIMLong”. Mike and his family are missionaries in France originally from Canada. A few weeks ago I attended the #WeekendCoffeeShare and read his post on beautiful flower arrangements at a French castle. I liked it and I started to follow. Mike writes: Do you enjoy traveling?

Don't spoil the adventure of coming to a big event after a long day with a lot of sightseeing
This time at my visit to London we stayed at a hotel in High Street Kensington just opposite the Kensington Gardens. On our walk to the tube station of the same name as the street I was struck by the beauty of a huge Art-Deco building. The name Barkers was printed high on top and some of the floors is now […]

Many concerts are held in the church, mostly baroque, and we were lucky to arrive on the last day of Easter to hear Handel’s Messiah. Around the corner is Charing […]
And some special exhibitions spring 2016 Staying at the attractive Kensington as a tourist it’s easy to take a bus to Knightsbridge and from there walk to the Victoria & Albert Museum also called the V&A. It’s huge so priorities have to be made or more than one visit is also a possibility. This time I went to see […]
Normally this is just never fun, but something you just want to come through and forget about it immediately. Today was different at the very busy London Stansted airport. A massive number of people were crowding in long queues and suddenly a deep and loud voice of an official is heard like a street trader at a marked place trying […]
Just opposite the Kensington High Street tube station a beautiful church in the 13th century English Gothic style. It’s drawn back a bit from the wide pavement in a busy corner of two streets.
