Mind the Gap


Though a lot like a major US city, there are some quirky features to London that make it confusing, frustrating, and wonderful. The food is strange (who eats baked beans for Breakfast?), you have to pay to use the public toilets (50p to pee), and the streets never seem to match what’s on the map. That being said we have really enjoyed our stay here. London is such an international city, and we have met so many nice people. Last night we went to the local pub for a pint and ended up playing billiards with a Greek, a Spaniard, a Scot and an Irishman. The sights have been great. We’ve seen all the big stuff, and tonight we took in a little culture with a night at the theatre. We went to see Wicked, which was loads of fun. Tomorrow we spent one last day exploring the city before we head up north to Scotland. I’ll need some of that whiskey to wash down the Hagas…

I thought a punchline was coming there for sure.

Glad you're having fun. Be safe!
