Reality Bites!
It is hard to put into words 7 days of sight-seeing, pub-crawling and theatre-going so I won't try http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif London is truly an amazing city! I was awestruck by it's size and diversity. I had a great time visiting with old friends and was fortunate to make a few new ones. I really encourage everyone that has not visited London to do so! It really is a city that must be seen and explored to truly understand it's rich history and culture. Thank you to everyone for their suggestions and advice before my trip. I was fortunate enough to get around almost exclusively by the underground, but was forced to take a mini-cab from central London (Leicester Square) to Acton Town. It only cost £15 though! The only disappointment on the trip was a trip to the countryside in Kent. I was lucky enough to meet a friend in Bromley who took me for a tour of the countryside and some of the more historic places (Darwin's house, Churchill's estate...) but all were closed due to Foot & Mouth disease. However, the drive was still worth it. Very beautiful and scenic! Well it is not quite as poetic and inspiring as Yorick's travel essays, but that is why I am an investment analyst and not a writer http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif ------------------ http://www.bestanimations.com/fantas.../dragon-04.gif It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear ignorant, than open it and remove all doubt! |
Moridin, you're home safe and sound. And you did take care of yourself. I was wondering whem you would get back. I've got to go off-line now, RL is calling, but I saw your post and wanted to say welcome home. I'll e-mail you later, OK, friend.

I've been to aulstralia for a month back then. It was GREAT trip. I stayed in Sydney most of the time, and I just love how beautiful the city truely is. People there are nice too. I remember that was the first time when I saw the light-signal-thing in the cross road. I didn't know what to do with it then http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif, and one of the native grandma just came to me, and she told me to push the botton. Then she went on and on to explain how it works, lol. so nice! and people would just come up to me and ask me if I need help finding places, ahhh, you cannot find those people in communism country. anyway, it is good to hear from you! |

Hi Moridin!
Glad you enjoyed it in London - Why didn't you tell me and Charlie etc.... We could've all gone out for a drink together!http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif I hope you did miss out any "big" attractions (well there're not big for me - just boring!http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/hihi.gif - But for you!) Did you see Madame Tussaud? The Planetarium? Chessington? Trafalgar Square? Buckingham Palace? By the way - as you've probably noticed - Leicester Square is London's little *CHINATOWN* http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif, I go there four times a week for shopping: I only lived 5 minutes walk away!! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif Yeah, London is a great place for those who haven't seen it. But for me who has lived here for over 10 years I would *love* to visit your hometowns just the same - We are all the same here. http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif PS: Ways to get around London are by Tube (Underground trains) or Bus, I hate the Tube because it usually makes me late for school! http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...miles/wink.gif ------------------ http://www.gis.net/~yos/lichwah.gif Greetings mortals, my name is Wah, Arch Lich Wah. |
