London, England Lots of lovely experiences came my way this month.
I revisited some familiar favorite sites. I saw some wonderful things that were quite new to me. I decided that the Northern Line is much more convenient than I ever realized. Though I did have an accident that involved a trip to the emergency room of a nearby (very impressive) major hospital, it was not caused by stepping into the street and failing to look in the correct direction – a rookie tourist mistake.
But most of all, it was a wonderful month of “let’s pretend.” I was single and footloose in a lovely flat in central London, with very few responsibilities to worry about. I had wonderful friends to play with and advise on the finer points of the London transportation system, and who also love a good day spent adventuring — as long as it includes a good café. I even got to meet up with a New York friend who just arrived here for her own adventures.
It’s sad to give up my fantasies, but I do look forward to some things that home offers. I’ll console myself with memories of this idyllic month. It may never be repeated, but I hope to return and catch glimpses of the places that I can claim as wonderful memories.
Thank you, London.
I had a wonderful month in London through goknow also. Thank you. New York awaits.
Safe trip home. Hope you don’t get tangled up with the TSA mess upon arrival. Thanks for sharing your London adventures through your very enjoyable blog.
Couldn’t have been smoother. Got through Global Entry without a pause and then just had to wait for luggage.
Great.
