Hiii…London is awesome. It’s been about 24 hours now that I’ve been here and I think we’ve almost seen everything. haha. JK. We just happened to get a little lost last night after Bobby misplaced his blackberry and ended up trekking all over the place. It’s so cool here, so much to look at. Last night we had dinner at this little greek place and had some fish-n-chips, hummus and flat bread and some kind of yummy beef skewers…oh and then chocolate cake that was sooo delicious!
…then we took the Tube to London Bridge and then the bus over to Piccadilly Circus…took a bike trolley around and somehow lost Bobby’s blackberry in the process (even though the bike trolley was so fun it kind of had a bad ending with us losing the phone and walking about 2 miles back to where we started to wait for that trolley driver to come back to home base….although we never saw him again.) This led to a very long walk home since it was late and the Underground trains had closed. It was a LONG walk but we saw so much cool stuff in the process and since alot of people weren’t out it felt like London was all ours (especially near the Bank Station Tube Stop (check out the myspace pictures)…nice peaceful and quiet walk all the way home – just really enjoyed it.
So, it’s past ten o’clock and I still haven’t gotten my workout in or my clothes packed for tomorrow, but I plan to be up for the next few hours I guess…I should be able to get it all done. I just got an email from Bobby explaining everything I need to do and where I need to go to get to our hotel. I was a little nervous about going by myself but I think I’m gonna be fine. I’ll just need to figure out something to do Thursday and Friday during the day since Bobby will be working. I might just find a coffee shop and try to adjust to the time change and do some blogging….I just don’t want to go to far and get lost or something. If anybody has any suggestions about places I should go in London…tell me now. I know for sure we are going to the TATE Modern Museum,
Piccadilly Circus, on a double decker bus tour, to the Portabella Road Market (I have to find the artist lady for Libby), The London Eye (a great big ferris wheel) and some other various places. So excited!!!
More than anything I’m just excited to see Bobby! It’s been like 5 days without him now and I am beside myself…I mean I’m busy and have tons going on but I’m so used to him being around when I get home for work and getting up together in the morning. I think my trip to Findlay over the weekend really helped because I was surrounded by my family and friends and not thinking about it constantly…but its gonna be so awesome when I see him again! yay!
Bridget came over tonight and I showed her the “rounds” for the kitties…she’s awesome for watching them….I just hope they don’t get too lonely without us here at night…they’re used to us not being home during the day but not at night. Hopefully I don’t get home and they’ve trashed the place. haha. At least they have each other though, I guess if it was just one kitty I’d worry more.
Well, I guess I’m off to watch the news and work out on the eliptical machine…and shower, and pack, and all that good stuff. Oh! And pray for me not to get lost in Heathrow Airport!
…and I’m a geek.
I’m really excited about this new blog. I swear this is the last time I’m going to try and keep this up. Try not to get weak and delete it. What do you guys think? Think I can keep it up? Ok well just watch – I’ll make you proud this time.
Well, for starters, it’s going to be quite an exciting year. I’m getting in shape, I’m going to hone my skills as a hula hooper and I’m going to try really hard to visit all my friends that I so desperately need to see. (You guys are the ones that have made my life so interesting up until this point.) Thanks for always being there and listening.
Well, I’m off to work on this blog design…check you later (for a more intimate update.)
