I have this dream of going to London, Liverpool, and Dublin within the next few years. I love to travel and am especially interested in international travel. I'd like to see Big Ben, the British Museum, Buckingham Palace, the Palace of Westminster, the Tower of London, Abbey Road, among several other things. In Liverpool, I'd obviously like to see all the places made famous by the Beatles such as the Cavern Club. Ireland and England are very close together and you can take a ferry between the islands. I'm not sure what I'd want to do in Dublin, but I'm sure there's lots of beautiful scenery and old castles to see in the countryside.
I'm sure it would be much more fun and easier to get around if we went with someone else or if we knew someone that lived there, like we knew our friends in Australia. It was much cheaper too because we were able to stay with them for a week instead of paying for another week of hotel rooms. International travel isn't cheap, but hopefully we can save up some money over the next two years and maybe go to London, Liverpool, and Dublin for our 5 year anniversary in 2012. Coincidentally the summer Olympics are being held in London in 2012, so we'd probably want to avoid those few weeks during the summer when it would be most crowded there. Or, we could go to some events if we wanted to spend a ton of money on it, but probably not, I guess we'll see what happens.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.

Oh yeah, the British Museum. That's one major thing I did that I forgot to mention earlier...
