Please aim to turn up for 1:00-1:30 when teams are being arranged. The Hunt starts at 1:30. You're losing search time if you're late! Bring a pen please. **We meet outside the new Sainsburys entrance further down the building. I’ll be wearing a red Meetup cap.** The National Gallery was founded in 1824, after the British government bought a collection of 38 pictures from the banker and collector John Julius Angerstein, consisting of Italian, Dutch and English works. We have a unique take on Treasure Hunts that broadens your art knowledge while sleuthing around gallery rooms. You are all presented with a sheet of 20 part images taken from paintings in a few adjoining designated rooms. You will also have a map of the Gallery. The selected adjoining rooms are listed P, Q, R and S. The clipboard holder enters the room letter to note the image location. Your collective mission is to find them. Usually it’s groups of three to four depending on numbers. Or bring a team of up to three guests with you! Check previous winners and Hunt sheet in the pics below. Dead simple, right? Well, yes, if you can spot them all. Generally though, results are always close. Check photos for the previous Hunt sheet. If you’re new, you can see what your team has to do. Stella said " I was apprehensive about trying this, but once I did, I loved it, our team was great fun". We are a happy and friendly group whose membership for some now goes back ten years. It’s very addictive wandering around looking at famous artwork. Our events make you see new parts of a painting you hadn’t noticed before. Or that fresh work has been introduced. We’ve done quite a few in the last two years and feel very much at home here. We never get tired looking at famous art. I think we come here more often than paying Gallery members! There's plenty of seating around to take the odd rest and look at the same time. Our Treasure Hunts are interesting and challenging, bringing out the best of your teams detecting skills. We meet outside the Sainsburys entrance further down the building. Look out for me under a red Meetup cap! The starting process is as follows. The earlier your team sets off, the more time you have. So turning up early ready for a 1.30 start is a bonus. Team answer sheets have to be back by 3.15. We meet back in the area next to the Espresso cafe where we mark up. In case of a tiebreak, there will be a general art knowledge numerical question where the “nearest to” wins. First team prizes are interesting varieties of chocolate. There is also a prize for the funniest/outrageous team name judged by Sue, my glamorous assistant. So there’s everything to play for. Some players are thinking of team names before they turn up! We always pop into a local pub or Wetherspoon (Magnus Pyke) for a quick drink after if anybody so wishes. Hunts are good fun and the proven experience so far is that members get to know each other better after working in teams as you all have to communicate. Great icebreakers. This is what Meetup is all about. Come and join us. **There is a £7 cash/card charge on the day. I supply a pen and clipboard but it helps you to bring a pen as well to mark your own sheets.** **Rucksacks now have to be worn front of body.** Items left in the cloakroom are charged at £3 per item. Contact number on the day is 07422334411 if your transport is delayed. If texting leave your name please. Email is stevebetts2000@yahoo.co.uk **Don’t forget to cancel via the “Edit RSVP” button if you can’t make it. Please do this well in advance when you know, so it allows good notice for someone else to take your place, and minimizes waiting about time on the day for other attendees.** **Your consideration is greatly appreciated.**

Come with Tim on a further exploration of Smithfield walking in the footsteps of the great C18 painter and engraver William Hogarth. He has been called the father of English Art as he developed a style uniquely English, in fact, uniquely London. It was a reflection of the violence, hypocrisy, squalor and vitality of the streets of London. From humble beginnings he became wealthy and famous but fashions moved on and he never became part of the art establishment. We will see where he was born, where he worked and where he rose to fame. We’ll aim to visit 3 great historical institutions which he knew well: The St. John’s Hospitallers gatehouse where he and his father once worked Greater St Bartholomew’s church (used in four weddings and a funeral) which was once his parish church And the one you probably haven’t seen before: the Great Hall of St Bartholomew’s hospital including its Hogarth Mural, recently restored to its former glory. We have exclusive tickets booked for this at 12 noon. Afterwards we’ll go on to eat and drink in one of the great pubs of London. We meet at Farmer J, 50 Cowcross Street Londonn EC1M 6 AL at 10.30 to start walking at 10.45 Fee is £12 payable by cash or card in the day or by bank transfer or PayPal. Phone is O7846899156

* We will meet outside the Alexandra Palace rail station, please aim for the Buckingham Road exit. * The Parkland Walk follows the course of the old railway that ran between Finsbury Park and Alexandra Palace. The four and a half miles provides tranquillity and a chance for those living in London, to enjoy the green environment in the very heart of the city. * It is London's longest Local Nature Reserve and supports a remarkable range of habitats and wildlife. Over two hundred species of wild flower have been recorded and it is probably the only place in Haringey where orchids rub shoulders with dandelions and ivy clambers up fig trees. * Hedgehogs, foxes, butterflies and a vast array of birds are spotted on a daily basis and a rare species of deer, the muntjac, is spotted from time to time. * The route along Parkland Walk is that of the old railway track. While there have been improvements to the surface over the years it is uneven in places and it can be muddy after wet weather. It is used by cyclists and runners, but pedestrians should have priority. We will finish our walk outside the Finsbury Park station. Optional drinks/lunch at the end of the walk. What to bring: Comfortable footwear Water Photo-taking gadgets and chargers An umbrella just in case (it's London after all) The walk is free for members who have subscribed for an annual membership. For other members the fee is £5 cash/card on arrival to contribute towards the organiser's meetup fees and costs. The annual pass option is £15 payable by cash or card on the day. This will provide access to at least 40 walks per year (members are welcome to bring a guest to each event). All walks are free for the NHS staff (also welcome to bring a guest). ***'No Show' Policy:*** *If the member replied 'yes' but did not attend the event, did not update the RSVP and did not inform the organiser on 3 occasions – this triggers an automatic removal from the group. That's once for events with a waiting list.*

THE TRIP IS NOW FULL, IF YOU WISH TO ATTEND, ADD YOURSELF TO THE WAITING LIST AND I WILL CONTACT YOU IF A PLACE BECOMES AVAILABLE. Come along on Saturday 21st March to visit the historical and spiritual town of Glastonbury! **About Glastonbury** Glastonbury is situated at a dry point on the low-lying Somerset Levels, 23 miles south of Bristol. Not only is is very historical, its a highly spiritual town which attracts New Age & Christian communities on pilgrimage. Evidence from timber trackways show that the town has been inhabited since Neolithic times. Glastonbury Abbey was founded in the 7th century and dominated the town for the next 700 years until the dissolution of the monasteries in the 1530's. It was one of the most important abbeys in England and was the site of Edmund Ironside's coronation as King of England in 1016. Many of the oldest surviving buildings in the town, including the Glastonbury Tribunal, George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn and the Somerset Rural Life Museum, which is based in an old tithe barn, are associated with the abbey. Glastonbury has been described as a New Age community which attracts people with New Age and Neopagan beliefs, and is notable for myths and legends often related to Glastonbury Tor (a natural hill where a roofless church sits on top). Joseph of Arimathea is said to have arrived in Glastonbury and stuck his staff into the ground, when it flowered miraculously into the Glastonbury Thorn. King Arthur is also said to be buried under the Tor. There is also a natural spring in the town called the Chalice Well, where people collect its waters to drink and bathe in. **Itinerary** We will be having a guided tour of the town, which is £7 per person. The tour is optional, you can do your own thing if you wish. 11:00am - aprox arrival 11:30am - guided tour of Glastonbury and a visit to the Chalice Well 1:00pm - lunch break 2:00pm - we will visit the White Spring and then walk up to the top of Glastonbury Tor 3:30pm - freetime - look around the town (lots of independent shops, including many spritual ones), plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants or visit the Rural Life Museum (£11 entry), the Glastonbury Tribunal, a 15th cen merchant's house (£4 entry), Glastonbury monastery remains, St. Margaret's Chapel (dates back to the 12th cen) or the Glastonbury Goddess Temple 5:30pm - meet back at the coach **Coach seating** * If you wish to reserve a seat on the coach in advance, after you pay please look at the seating plan in the photos [here](https://www.meetup.com/london_cultureseekers/photos/35844254/532828810/) and then email me - [general@cultureseekers.org](http://general@cultureseekers.org), with the seat number/s you wish to reserve.

Нас ждет одно из красивейших мест Великобритании — группа меловых скал **Seven Sisters** («Семь сестер»). 🏔. Она расположена на юго-востоке Англии, между городами Истбурн и Брайтон. Сюда приезжают романтики 👩‍❤️‍👨, самоубийцы и съемочные группы 🎥. Так, местные красоты попали в кадр серии «Искры из глаз» про Джеймса Бонда0️⃣0️⃣7️⃣. Секретный агент прыгал с парашютом со скалы. По сценарию, действие происходило на Гибралтаре, однако сцену снимали именно здесь. Также здесь снимались сцены фильма «Робин Гуд: Принц воров»🧝🏻 с участием Кевина Костнера. Свое поэтическое название скалы получили в честь греческих плеяд. Согласно легендам, у Атланта и Плейоны было семь дочерей🧝🏻‍♀️ — Майя, Алкиона, Электра, Меропа, Стеропа, Келено и Тайгета. Все, кроме одной, вышли замуж за богов. Только Меропа выбрала простого смертного — Сизифа. Правда, супруг, царь Коринфа🤴🏻, оказался преступником. Его в последствии отправили в ад🔥 и приговорили к каторжным работам — постоянно поднимать в гору булыжник. Эти сестры стали звездами 🌟 (как это произошло неизвестно — версии расходятся). Но факт в том, что шесть звезд светят ярко, а одну (бывшую Меропу) трудно заметить. Ей стыдно за неверный выбор. Так и со скалами 🧗‍♀️: 6 отчетливо видны, а вот седьмую должен кто-нибудь показать 👉🏻. Кстати, оказывается, что на самом деле утесов восемь. Здесь очень красиво! Особенно привлекательно место для романтиков💘. Согласитесь, маяк — это очень романтично. А здесь их два! Первый, Belle Tout, построили в 1828 году из-за постоянных кораблекрушений,🚢 происходивших в XVII-XVIII веках. Сначала он был деревянным, но через семь лет его заменили на каменный🧱. Новый маяк Beachy Head начал работать в 1902 году. Его высота составляла 43 метра, что было достаточным для ⚓️ моряков. До 1983 года маяком управляли 3 человека, но затем процесс полностью 🕹 автоматизировали. Beachy Head расположен в воде так, что до него трудно добраться. 📝План поездки: 📍**08:45 Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62),** 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍11:00 — 12:00 Прогулка по пляжу Seaford 📍12:00 — 13:30 Местный паб «[The Cuckmere Inn»](https://www.vintageinn.co.uk/restaurants/south-east/thecuckmereinnseaford?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=gmb), обед с видом на парк Seven Sisters 📍14:00 — 15:00 Остановка на побережье Ла-Манша (Birling Gap) у кафе с лестницей для спуска к морю, прогулка к мысу [Beachy Head](https://www.beachyhead.org.uk/) и маякам 📍15:30 — 16:30 Жемчужина города променад Eastbourne и прогулка вдоль моря 📍16:30 Отправление 📍18:45 London, Hammersmith 👣 Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️Аудиогид на русском ⚜️Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️Профессиональный водитель с курсами IAM/RoSPA ⚜️Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌Не включено: ❌Входные билеты: цены указаны в плане путешествия ❌Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌[Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌[Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒Что взять с собой: ☑️Воду/еду по желанию ☑️Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️Хорошее настроение 🙂 ✳️Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

Мы отправляемся в одно из самых мистических мест Великобритании — Glastonbury🧙‍♂️ (Гластонбери), небольшой городок в графстве Сомерсет. История этого места тесно связана с именем Короля👑 Артура и царством Авалон. По легенде, смертельно раненного в бою короля фея Моргана, его сестра, перенесла на сказочный остров, где жили феи🧚‍♀️ и эльфы🧝‍♂️. Именно здесь обитал волшебник Мерлин🧙‍♂️, с помощью которого Артур смог получить священный меч. Считается, что Glastonbury — это и есть сказочный Авалон, а король Артур с супругой захоронены⚰️ на территории Гластонберийского аббатства. Но не только легендами о короле Артуре славится Гластонбери. В нашем туре мы посетим Chalice Well (Источник Чаши) — один из самых древних каменных колодцев Великобритании, который существует здесь уже два тысячелетия😳. По легенде, в источнике спрятан Святой Грааль, сохранивший кровь Христа. Некоторые полагают, что именно поэтому вода имеет красноватый оттенок и считается целебной💉. Воду из подземного источника разрешается пить. На дубовой крышке колодца изображен древний символ единения неба и земли. Говорят, что, вглядываясь в колодец, можно ощутить тонкую грань, отделяющую наш мир от мира духов🧟‍♂️. Парк, на территории которого расположен колодец, объявлен заповедником. Огромным количеством тайн, домыслов и мифов окутан холм Тор. Многие считают, что именно он и является вратами в царство Авалон. И для такого предположения есть причины: столько всего загадочного, непознанного и недоступного пониманию сосредоточено на этом небольшом холме. Уже несколько веков Тор привлекает внимание исследователей и любителей древних загадок. Так, например, было установлено, что тропа ведущая на вершину, представляет собой спиральный лабиринт, который в кельтской мифологии считался символом входа в Иной мир. А значит, вполне возможно, что там, где заканчивается тропа и находились (а может быть, и находятся!) врата в царство Авалон☝🏼. Одни полагают, что Тор — это место жертвоприношения, созданное руками человека, другие считают, что здесь стираются границы параллельно существующих миров.

Stroll through vibrant tulip fields at the famous Keukenhof Gardens, a true feast for the eyes. Venture to The Hague and Delft to explore historic churches, canal-laced streets, and iconic blue-and-white pottery. Savor authentic Dutch cuisine, sample local cheese, and experience the country’s timeless charm at every stop. **To view the full ITINERARY & REGISTER visit:** **[WTA AMSTERDAM 2026](https://womentravelabroad.com/trip/amsterdam/)** **ITINERARY** **Day 1 – April 7** – Arrive at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS). Private transportation will take you to your accommodations for the week. After settling into your hotel, your group will get to know each other over a local welcome dinner. **Note:** We recommend your flight from the US arrives before 11 am on April 7 to allow adequate time to join the day’s activities. If you wish to arrive one day early, on April 6, charges for the additional night’s stay can be added to your invoice. **Day 2 – April 8** – Today, you will take a memorable tour of the Anne Frank House. Discover Amsterdam’s WWII history and follow in the footsteps of Anne Frank as she went into hiding in the Secret Annex. Jewish Anne Frank hid in 1942 from the Nazis during the occupation of the Netherlands; two years later, she was discovered and died in 1945 at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. Afterward, continue your cultural journey with a visit to the renowned Van Gogh Museum. Home to the world’s largest collection of works by Vincent van Gogh, the museum offers a profound look into the artist’s life, featuring iconic paintings, sketches, and personal letters that reveal the struggles and brilliance behind his art. **Day 3 – April 9** – FREE Day. Enjoy shopping throughout the city, or take a scenic bike ride through the countryside. Cycling in Amsterdam is the most authentic way to travel. There are around 515 km (320 miles) of dedicated cycle lanes in Amsterdam, making it the perfect setting to cycle the city or beyond. The countryside area is famous for its quaint villages, historic towns, farms, nature reserves, and lakes. You will have many opportunities to stop and take one-of-a-kind photos of the picturesque sights. **Day 4 – April 10** – Your group will spend today at the famous Keukenhof Garden, known as the Garden of Europe. This is one of the world’s largest flower gardens and is found to be the most beautiful in spring. Keukenhof Park covers an area of 32 hectares and has approximately 7 million flower bulbs planted annually. Make sure to have your camera ready to capture all of the vibrant colors and unique displays at the Keukenhof Garden! Transfer from Amsterdam to begin your adventure in The Hauge as the fun continues. **Day 5 – April 11** – Begin your day with a walking tour of the Hague!

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

**This is the biggest party in town!** ***Come help us enjoy the luckiest day of the year!*** The Irish Pub and outside overflow tent have Irish Beer, Whiskey and Food. Inside the giant tent the best local Irish bands perform while Irish dancers parade by and the Columbus fife and drum invade each late afternoon. **COVER CHARGE: $20.00** **4pm** - [Drowsy Lads](http://www.thedrowsylads.com/) Named as “The Best Irish-American Band” the 20 year performing veterans have galvanized their place amongst Irish and folk music’s must see acts. You’ll have a blast… and the band will be arm in arm beside you! **7pm** \- Rice Brothers Since 1995, [Byrne’s Pub](https://byrnespub.com/) has served as a Grandview hub for all things Irish. In fact, co-owner Pat Byrne even operates a line of craft Irish whiskey, known as Bua. The Grandview Spot is also a huge patron of both Celtic music and bluegrass, as live musical guests from both genres perform at Byrne’s on the regular.

We thought of one of the interesting things that can be enjoyed at this time of the year. We will be meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church for a "Fish Fry" in Marian Hall on Friday, March 27th at 5:00 PM. It might be fun for you to experience what has become a tradition on the Fridays before Easter. They will have fried fish or baked fish, French fries and Cole slaw, as well as beverages, all for $16.00 for adults. They will have other beverages and desserts available for sale, as well. We have never tried this, and sometimes there are quite a few people at these events so we hope that we will be able to find each other easily. I'll try to have signs outside Marian Hall that Identify our group. We hope to have you join us!
