replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas @postcardsplaces A2 I loved flying above @theouterbanks in an open cockpit biplane. Made me feel like the Wright Brothers. Well, a tiny bit. #travel #funness #TRLT

A2: A tour guide told me that structural engineers come to see this three-story spiral staircase at the Nathaniel Russell house in Charleston, SC. No supports, no nails. #TRLT

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 @Touchse @pip_says @HeidiSiefkas That's true...no one in the UK has AC (as we so rarely need it) and the houses are not designed to stay cool. #TRLT

replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas @postcardsplaces A2: we (and many others) can explore Tintagel Castle in Cornwall fully, thanks to a new bridge with a two-part cantilever design which opened in 2019, allowing access from the mainland to the headland. It's a remarkable, dramatic site, where legends say King Arthur was born #TRLT

A2: Another highlight of Laura's trip to Scotland was Neptune's Staircase on the Caledonian Canal. Built by Thomas Telford, this amazing feat of engineering is the longest staircase lock in Scotland & raises the canal by 19m over a quarter of a mile of continuous masonry! #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @postcardsplaces A2: Hard to limit to just one and they're all pretty cliche, but there's a reason for it. Despite being desperate to go the Taj Mahal, Ayia Sofia, Machu Picchu and Petra, I was still in awe #TRLT

@aok_NW I love staying @GrandHyattKL as it has absolutely stunning views from its 35th floor. I was amazed by the view when entering my hotel room for the first time; 8 pm, floor-to-ceiling windows, facing directly #petronastwintowers - wow! Fell asleep watching this!
