So I'm planning an international scandal  a fan-freaking-tastic visit to England this fall and whewie...the interesting things I'm finding. Should we stay in a gypsy wagon or a windmill? A train car or a yurt? Yeah, you read that right. A yurt. In England. What the what?

Aside from accommodations, though, I'm super excited to be attending the Jane Austen Festival in Bath. They're going for a Guinness Book of World Records of having the most people dressed in Regency clothing. Yep. I'm going for it. Haven't managed to talk my husband in to it yet, but he did agree to sit through a lecture on what a Regency woman would've kept in her reticule.

I also snagged some tickets for the very same ferry that Cassie rode in UNDERCURRENT. Don't worry. I won't be buying any brooches. But I will be visiting Jorvik, the Viking dig in York where she met Ragnar.

I haven't found any special places to visit to find out about smugglers or highwaymen yet, but I'll nose around some more and uncover something.

Taking a vacation as a writer is a little different than tossing a swimsuit in a bag and hitting the beach. I want to find museums and living history reenactments and out-of-the-way non-tourist traps. It's tricky and time consuming, but I suspect that it will be oh so worth it.

If any of you readers out there in Blogland have any can't-miss-it sites in England I should visit, give me a holler in the comment section. And even if you don't, leave a comment anyway because the big drawing for a free Gannah book is tomorrow on Fun Friday.
