Travel Bucket List

A friend of mine (Brandy) and I are going to be spending about two weeks traveling in the UK in December and into January, so I've been going through travel books at the library and googling things like "castle + UK" and "UK + free". I already knew, but it's really hit home now, that there was no way we were going to see and do all things I want - especially because as a friend I have to let her have some input on the itinerary. *sigh* Oh the hardships I must deal with ;)

So since I have discovered there are so many places I would like to go I decided to create a bucket list of travel - a list of places I want to see before my demise. It's a work in progress and I plan on adding to it in more detail as the years progress and I am financially stable enough to take vacations/holidays, but so far I've come up with a smattering of places in the UK.
