Exploring our world one trip at a time...............................

The Florentine, Sheffield

Why Stay Here.................................
Picture
​I don’t usually focus a whole blog on a place to stay but I really fell in love with The Florentine situated in Fulwood , Sheffield. I may be biased as I went to school at Notre Dame which is situated just up the road so I know the area well. I love this area of Sheffield with it’s beautiful tree lined roads and  fabulous pubs and parks. Minutes from the city center this area offers so much. If you are fortunate to visit the city of Sheffield I highly recommend that you stay at The Florentine, here’s why………theflorentinepub.com/

The Location.........


The Pub.......

The pub has a lot to offer, friendly staff, great drinks and, good food are always a recipe for a good night out. I was in Sheffield for only a few nights and on two occasions decided to stay in and have friends and family visit me at The Florentine - It was a good choice! Both nights we were able to relax in a friendly atmosphere , comfortable setting and enjoy some pretty good food. The Florentine offered a two for one fire roasted pizza deal which couldn’t be beat. The pizza and service was excellent both nights.

Take Time at St.Pancras Station.....

St.Pancras train station opened its doors to its first trains and passengers in 1868 .It is one of the finest examples of Victorian engineering found in England. It is a masterpiece of Victorian Gothic Architecture and one of the most elegant stations in the world. I recently had the pleasure of taking an hour and savoring the splendor of this building. On route from my hometown of Sheffield to Gatwick Airport I stopped here, before scurrying along with all the other passengers ,to enjoy sometime at the longest champagne bar in Europe.

St.Pancras Champagne Bar By Searcy's
If you ever have the opportunity to visit St.Pancras Station be sure to take some time and indulge your senses at the longest champagne bar in Europe-a truly fabulous experience. This really is well worth a trip to this unique train station. The Champagne Bar by Searcy is amazing  in every way and every detail has been paid attention to including heated leather seats and blankets for chilly winter evenings, a button to press for a champagne refill and soft lighting. Champagne can be ordered by the glass or bottle, there is a drinks and food menu. I loved the quail scotch egg and I loved everything about this amazing bar. Check out the website for all of the information you need to make your stop here memorable.  stpancrasbysearcys.co.uk/

Sheffield

I was born and raised in this town but I never turn down an opportunity to rediscover this city and all it has to offer. Sheffield was a steel town for many, many years, my grandfather and most everyone else in the city worked in the steel works. At one time Sheffield was the leading cutlery supplier to the world and stainless steel was developed here. The city produced expert silversmiths . It’s roots are the industrial era and it continues to embrace these roots. Now a city of 575,000 much has changed and much has stayed the same. A diverse city which offers an array of things to see and do much of which is free.  
If you ever have the chance to visit this area take a few days and explore this diverse, ever changing historically interesting city .Here are my suggestions, come explore Sheffield with me………………..Welcome to my hometown -Sheffield!

Sheffield is a diverse city of 575,000 people. This city has so much to offer in terms of restaurants, entertainment and so much more. My visit with family was short but sweet but as always I found revisiting some of my old haunts exciting. Here I highlight a few of my favorites and the amazing thing is they happen to be free.

Explore The Peak District-Hathersage

6/18/2018

​ If you ever find yourself in Sheffield you must take a day and head out to the Peak District. This is an amazing National Park it's like no other. It offers outstanding views, beautiful villages steeped in history, stunning walks, cycling , birding opportunities, the list goes on. It is actually very difficult for me to try to describe the Peak District it literally is an area that must be experienced.
I have known this area since I was a child, I have walked the public footpaths, camped in the fields , played in the streams and hiked on the moors but every time I return to Sheffield I am drawn to this area. For this visit I chose Hathersage as the town to rediscover.
www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/home

Why Hathersage.............................

Hathersage is a tiny village nestled in the Peak District only 11 miles from Sheffield. This is home to many of the legends of Robin Hood and his merry men. This is a village worth exploring. It has a beauty all of it’s own with quaint cottages and it  is surrounded by stunning scenery. 
Picture

First Stop..........for Food of Course

My Mom suggested that we eat at a local cafe that she  has enjoyed -The Pool Cafe ! This is a small cafe with plenty of cooked to order options and of course tea and cakes available.
www.hathersageswimmingpool.co.uk/about/cafe/

After enjoying a full English breakfast we decided to take a walk up to Little John's grave. This particular landmark  is what makes Hathersage famous- it is the site where Little John ,one of Robin Hood's Merry-men is buried. The walk to the site is uphill but worth the hike. The views along the way are quite beautiful.

Unexpected Layover- Shannon, Ireland

After a disastrous trip caused by Kiwi.com -blog in the works-I unexpectedly found myself in Shannon Texas for 10 hours. At this point in my journey I was beginning to feel like Tom Hanks in the movie Terminal so I decided a layover adventure was seriously needed.
After taking sometime to make sure I actually had a connecting flight I headed to the information desk of this tiny airport where I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t have too many options but I had one that fit the bill perfectly…………………

Picture
At the information desk I was directed first to a luggage drop off where this kind gentleman will store a suitcase for a mere 4 euros approximately $5-the best airport deal I have ever found.Next I was told to head right outside and find the #343 bus which would take me directly to Bunritty Castle ; easy and the return cost was just 7 euros. The bus-ride was only about 20 minutes and I was dropped less than a half mile walk to the castle.

Seriously this is.................

Picture
I know it looks like the Caribbean but this really is Surfside,Texas. Once again I find myself enjoying the Texas coast, this time for a “Leadership Retreat”.  Time to spend a long weekend indulging in some well earned beach time.

 When in Surfside Stay by the Surf at "On The Rocks"

Picture
Picture
“On the Rocks” is literally right in front of the surf, on the rocks. This is a beautiful three bedroom, three bathroom property with the most incredible views. It’s updated and tastefully decorated with everything you need to make your stay in Surfside amazing. This was our second time staying here and we were not disappointed. The deck is just perfect for enjoying cocktails ,early morning coffee and late evening meals.
Melanie ,the owner is very responsive and always leaves a welcoming bottle of wine or two. Highly recommend staying at “On The Rocks” any time of year.

Springtime is a magical time in Texas. Nature is once again awakening to its full majesty, the days are longer and the temperatures pleasant. It’s time to consider a day trip.  Granbury is a great choice.  An hour and half from Dallas and under three hours from Austin makes this a perfect weekend destination or day trip. The drive to this area at this time of year is plain and simple "good for the soul"- Texas wildflowers are truly part of God’s great masterpiece.


Nearby..............Take a Detour!

​
On our way to Granbury we took a detour to Dinosaur State Park in Glen Rose. If you are in the area this really is a must do especially if you have children. We enjoyed the park together but plan on taking the grandkids soon.

Iceland- Why you should go........

I have been blessed to visit Iceland twice. My first experience was in 2014 on a short stopover on my way back from visiting the UK. I only had two night so my trip was a whirlwind. I opted for a Golden Circle Tour to see some of the sights on my list and I loved it. The next day I spent alone exploring Reykjavik - I was not disappointed ! This was a great trip and I vowed to come back and explore more with Gene. We were blessed to do just that and spent 3 days exploring more of what Iceland has to offer. One of the things on my wish list was walking on the black beaches of Vik – it was amazing……

If you live in Texas driving is a huge part of your everyday life. If you chose to travel anywhere in Texas road trips are a given. My road trips became all the more interesting because of a little Ap called Roadside America. It’s not the best Ap but it entertains me and I get to lead my sweet husband off on some pretty unsuspecting adventures- not all of which he appreciates. Here are my top ten Roadside America sights! Enjoy! 

​Huntington Sculpture Foundation

​
1. This place is literally in the middle of nowhere and you really do have to hunt to find it- no pun intended! What is even more curious is that it almost appears to be in someone’s back yard. The sculptures are amazing and certainly worth considering. When I contemplate our visit here I am still in awe of the sheer beauty in such an obscure place.

Spring Break Means Family Time at the Beach .......

Picture
Surfside Beach,Texas

Every year ,every teacher, every where is on countdown to that magical time of year- Spring Break! Ever since our children were small we have indulged ourselves with a family trip to the Texas coast. Our children are grown now with children of their own and we have been blessed to continue the tradition. 
​
Picture
Mom makes us do the selfie!

This year we chose Surfside, Texas as our destination. Surfside is a small town not far from Galveston and less than 2 hours from Houston. It is actually an historical site – the place where Stephen F. Austin first arrived in Texas and where in 1832 the First Battle of Texas was fought.
 I love this small town and all it has to offer. Originally I booked a house with VRBO but after a dispute plans changed and we were fortunate enough to get a perfect family friendly home through Airbnb. Find out about all of our adventures and read to the end of the blog to find out why you should never book with Home Away or VRBO 

​

Why Surfside..............well of course the beach!

As you may or may not have surmised by now I am a practicing catholic, when I travel I love to go to Mass is new churches .Whether you are catholic or not, the Painted Churches of Texas are most definitely worth discovering. These churches are not only quite stunning they rich in  history and are a real part of the Texas culture. The churches are also in some of the most beautiful countryside Texas has to offer. We explored them on one of my birthday trips in the spring. The bloom of the wildflowers along the highway bears no comparison……………….

Shiner

Shiner boasts one of the most beautiful painted churches in Texas, Saints Cyril and Methodius Church. We have visited many times as our family not only loves to see the church but of course Shiner Brewery is a must when we are in town.

Washington State Olympic Penninsula

This past summer Gene and I embarked on one of our longest road trips to date. We Flew into Seattle then took the ferry to Poulsbo where we began exploring the Olympic Peninsula. This was one of our most favorite trips in the states. The scenery in this part of the world is breathtaking, the people friendly and the towns quirky- we spent 10 days exploring and had a blast. Here are some of the highlights of that trip.
Picture
Poulsbro was a great place to position ourselves for a few nights. The town is a great place to explore with plenty of restaurants, shops and a beautiful marina. We were lucky enough to be there for the Fourth of July celebrations with amazing fireworks. If you ae in this area be sure to check out the incredible bakery ………………..delicious!!!

Travel Tips that Make Sense
Travel has been a passion of mine for a while but since my children are grown and my nest is empty I have been able to indulge this passion much more often. Over the last few years I have learned a few things that can make a huge difference in how any trip turns out. Here are my top tips that I hope will be of use to you as you explore our world one trip at a time.

What To Pack...............Well.........

Picture
Well NO not The Kitchen Sink!
Let me begin by being very general and vague. What you pack really does depend on the trip you are taking. Obviously length of the trip, climate and, selected activities will all have a major impact on what you put in that suitcase. Having said that there are some specific items that I include on every trip.

#KeysRoadTrip......Part II

2/24/2018

After some great stops along the way we headed to Key Largo for our last night in the Keys. Next Stop Hampton Inn, Key Largo. 

Picture
Although this hotel had great reviews we just weren’t expecting this Hampton Inn to offer so much, if you are in Key Largo stay here.
One of the things we had hoped to do while on the Keys was kayak .Unfortunately because of Irma all the kayak businesses were in the process of re-establishing due to so much damage. Even the state parks were partially closed and there was not a kayak to be had. We were pleasantly surprise to find that the Hampton had its own private beach with kayaks for rent and so much more. We spent a few hours kayaking then lazing on the beach watching the manatee that came so very close and then we  watched a most beautiful sunset before we headed out for dinner. The next morning we were totally entertained by the enormous lizards who clearly know the exact times for breakfast. This turned out to be a really great place to end our time on the Keys.

Florida Keys Roadtrip

2/21/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
 On November 3rd, 2017 we celebrated 30 years of marriage. We had determined that a short road trip was our only option as we were on a tight schedule in the middle of the school year. My plans for the trip began as soon as we returned from our summer road trip through Washington and Oregon. But as the saying goes “the best laid plans”- certainly need to be flexible when you travel!
Hurricane Irma with all its force hit the Keys in September; we all saw the  utter devastation that was left in its wake. After little debate we decided to continue with our plans given the fact our tourist dollars could do more good there than any place else we might choose.
It was a good decision. Our 4 day road trip was incredible. Yes, we saw unbelievable beauty juxtaposed with unthinkable damage but wherever we went we were welcomed and thanked and we witnessed true resilience and strength. Conch strength!



Overnight in Hollywood Beach

Picture
Hollywood,Beach FL
We stayed a block from the boardwalk so although we arrived at 9:00pm we were still able to walk on the boardwalk and have dinner and drinks watching the waves. The next morning we were up for an early start but we first took a walk on the boardwalk. I fell in love with this beach and the boardwalk. No doubt it was the time of year but the weather was beautiful and the beach quiet. Locals were out and about bike riding or walking dogs’. Although our time there was very short I loved it and would love to really explore the area another time but for now the Keys were calling us.

Seattle In A Day

2/19/2018

0 Comments

 
​Last Summer I planned a road trip around the coastline of Washington State down through Oregon and back. Our journey began in a City I have yearned to visit, Seattle. We had one day and we were making the most of that day!!!
​Tips for a Visit to Seattle:
  • If you are traveling from Dallas Alaska Airlines are awesome and very reasonable prices.
  • Hotels are expensive but if you in Seattle for a short time choose one in the center so you can spend your time visiting sights.
  • Summertime is your best chance of decent weather- we had a glorious day of sunshine!
  • Explore the city by foot you will see so much more.
  • Public transportation is quick, easy and inexpensive- street cars and trains.
  • Prioritize- if you only have a day like we did pre-planning and prioritizing is essential.

Must Do in a Day


​​Here is what we did in a day……………..
Arrived on Alaska Airlines and headed right to our hotel in downtown Seattle. We stayed at the Kimpton Hotel Vintage. Normally I loved to splurge on a Kimpton but this particular was a disappointment and I don’t recommend it. We were able to store our luggage and head out on our adventure. Here are some highlights and what I would say are “Must do’s” in Seattle.  

1st Stop Pike's Market- hugely touristy but if everyone is there is must be worth a stop right? You decide!

 While you are here be sure and get in line for some of the best macaroni cheese you will ever taste at Beecher's.

The Best Day Trip Ever........

St.Malo

I love to take day trips. The idea of exploring a new place always excites me weather it is around the corner or on a different continent. If I haven’t had a chance to travel for a while I love to plan a local day trip but I also love to day trip when I’m actually on vacation. I know this may seem like a totally bizarre concept but it really isn’t. Let me explain how a little planning and willingness to explore can turn a wonderful vacation into a truly memorable one. 
​
Picture
My mother and I have taken many vacations together this one began on the beautiful island of Jersey. Initially the plan was to spend our time relaxing and gently discovering all that Jersey has to offer -Jersey does have so much to offer. On further consideration after a little research I realized that a day trip to St. Malo, France was easily a possibility. I decided to surprise my Mom and purchase ferry tickets so  that we could spend a day in the beautiful historic town of St.Malo.
​I think my mother would agree this turned out to be the best day trip ever!

On one of my trips to the UK I travelled north with my mother and sister-in-law. It was her first visit to the UK and we wanted her to see a little of what Scotland has to offer. We were only there for a few days but  Dornoch Beach, the town of Dornoch and some of the places we visited  in the surrounding area were quite spectacular. My sister-in-law fell in love with Scotland as will you if you have the opportunity to visit.

Highlights of Past Trips to the UK

Picture
I was born and raised in the steel town of Sheffield,South Yorkshire. After attending Liverpool University I left on my first extensive trip outside of the UK.  Some friends and I headed to Israel with a backpack and youth on our side. The love of travel was born. To cut a long story short a year later I found myself living in Germany where I met and married the love of my life ,an American! I have now resided in the States for almost 30 years and during that time I have been drawn back to the UK frequently to visit family and to ensure my children knew their heritage. In the last few years my nest has been empty so I have enjoyed to ability to travel and see more of the UK. Here are some highlights of trips over the years. If you are considering a trip try and make it a priority to visit more than just London.

Area surrounding my hometown of Sheffield.

Keep Calm and Drink Tea........

One of the things I miss the most about home is the food and drinks. I know what you are thinking; British food that's for the birds. Well I happen to love British food and if you know what to eat I think you will too. If you ever get the chance to visit be sure to try some of the food that I have  highlighted here……………cheers!!!

When In Rome ....Eat!!

1/27/2018

Mangiare per vivere ! Buon appetito!- Eat to live! Enjoy your meal!

Picture
Rome is definitely the place to live to eat and enjoy the meal! 
 Last summer I surprised my Mom by planning a whirlwind trip to Rome. She flew in from the UK and I flew in from the USA (via a stopover in Toronto). We met in the airport, got a taxi to our Airbnb and spent a wonderful, whirlwind 5 days exploring Rome. Before we left a friend of mine recommended a food tour. As eating and drinking is such a huge part of the Italian culture we chose to book this tour for our first night in Rome. The reasoning for this was to gain some insights before we were left to our own devices in exploring all of the culinary delights that Rome has to offer.
Taking this tour was one of the best decisions we made. We opted for an early evening tour at 4pm. This is  very early for Rome as dinner doesn’t usually begin until much later. We were very fortunate as the other tour members rescheduled for a later time and my mother and I had our own personal guide for this tour. Luca was amazing! I checked and she is still working for the same tour company so if you have the opportunity to get her as a guide do it! –Buon appetito !

Best of Belton,Texas

1/20/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Although I was born and raised in England I take great pride in my “adopted” home, Texas. I am proud of the fact that after 21 years of military service we chose to make Belton, Texas our home. I have been planning to write a blog about the charms of certain Texas towns so, I decided that I would begin by illuminating my “adopted hometown” of Belton.
Whether you live near or far, Belton is a small town worth stopping for. It is situated 62 miles north of Austin and has lots to discover. 
So head this way and discover all that Belton has to offer. Ya'll won’t regret it!!!


Picture

BBQ in Belton..................


​Of course any trip to Belton should begin with BBQ and there is no better place to begin than at the legendary Schoepf’s. On my dad’s first visit to the States in 1989 he was introduced to this great taste at this fine establishment -he was hooked, so were we. If you love BBQ you will love Schoepf’s and an added bonus is great live music in the summer months .These summer events are free and offer a wide variety of local artists is a great venue with amazing food.


Down By The Creek........

Picture
In Belton “down by the creek “ takes on a whole new meaning. There is fun to be had here. Once a year Nolan Creek is stocked with trout so fishing is clearly an option, tubing and, generally just hanging out by the water is another option. In the summer you will find free concerts and best of all the area just above the creek has some fabulous food and drink establishments to explore. My grandson loves the frozen yogurt at The Weigh Station, we love the atmosphere and food at The Gin. If relaxation is what you need check out The Woodhouse Spa you won’t be disappointed by any of these choices.

This year it's "Honky Tonk Town"- AKA Nashville AKA Music City
Picture
Each year for the last 7 years my husband and I have taken a trip with my in-laws . Three years ago my father-in-law died; in his honor we continue the tradition, always raising a glass to him and treasuring the memories. Time to make more memories..........

Who Knew...................

 Queen Victoria was the first person to actually describe Nashville as Music City!  One fact I managed to learn and actually retain during this weekend of fun in the Music City.

Picture

So Now We are Here .......Where to Stay?

Picture
We opted to stay in East Nashville in a very comfortable Airbnb. The house was perfect for our stay as we needed a place to comfortably visit and catch up with family while at the same time have easy access to walkable restaurants. This place delivered that and so much more.  I loved the eclectic style and the comfort and size of the rooms. We were presently surprised at how close we were to sites that we wanted to visit and our Uber bill was more than reasonable. The host ,Laura ,was very responsive and offered a grocery service at a very reasonable rate.During our stay Nashville was hit with ice and snow and she was kind enough to ensure the steps and walkway were well salted to ensure our safety. If you are in Nashville consider this AirBnB as an option it really offers so much for a great price.

Iceland #Stopover #Whynot

1/6/2018

4 Comments

 
Picture
I discovered the world of "stop overs' on a trip home. ......Why haven't I been doing this for years?
I discovered that I could fly Iceland Air and get a totally free stopover in this amazing country. New country,break up the flying time this was too good to not explore.
So off I went to discover this new country- it was one of the best travel experiences I have ever had; so much so when I traveled next with Gene we took a three day stop over and he also fell in love with this amazing country.
​
If you ever get the opportunity to plan a trip to Europe consider a stop over here you won’t regret it. Iceland is expensive but it doesn't have to be. Below are some tips for seeing the sights on a budget.

Tips for Travel In Iceland:

​
  • If you are only there for a short stay take a tour with Viator. Great value for money and you see so much.
  • Stay outside of Reykjavik Hotels are much cheaper. When I was alone I stayed at Nordurey Hotel Reykjavik Road, Hafnarfjordur, Iceland. 
  • Buses into Reykjavik are easy and cheap once there I visited all the sites on foot. Spent a fabulous day exploring this fabulous city.
  • Be sure to eat lunch in the Old Harbor- 2 or 3 course set meals for around $20-30.
  • Whatever you do DO NOT be fooled by any locals into trying the fermented shark- YOU will regret this; I know I still do the thought makes me break out in a cold sweat!!!
  • Visit Gullfoss and eat lamb stew in the cafe - delicious and relatively inexpensive for Iceland.
  • Visit in the summer and driving is easy even in a car the size of a nugget. 
  • Visit in the winter and see the Northern Lights-on my wish list.
  • Pack snacks and wine in checked bag.

Last trip for 2017..........

12/25/2017

7 Comments

 
​This last trip for 2017 was a spur of the moment, “My husband doesn’t know what to get me for Christmas trip. “
Literally, I called Gene after he had been missing in action in search of Christmas gifts for over 6 hours ………..of course I could feel his pain I could hear his pain, so to ease the pain I said ,” Why don’t we go to the beach  for a couple of days for my gift?” 

The sigh of relief was palpable even through the phone, his anxiety lifted and we packed our bags. Off we  went to the beach for 2 days.

Turned out to be a great trip.

If you ever get the chance to  visit the Gulf Coast of Texas in the winter even if it’s only for 2 days-DO IT , it's just a beautiful time of year.

​If you go I  can pretty much guarantee you some pleasantly, peaceful empty beaches. Here are a few highlights and places I recommend but have fun exploring the area for yourself.
