Jet lag's a bitch . . .
Yeah, I made it. I'm now slowly working on my London accent . . . it's a little tricky since I'm really not talking with the locals too much right now and my Auntie Karen ("auntie" in the asian sense) never really picked it up and it still speaking Chinese-accented English more than anything else. I'll keep working at it, though, even though I'm probably mixing dialects more than anything else (that Giant Hornet thing really stuck the Billy Boyd Scottish into me, which is really complicating things).
Anyways, it's probably about . . . 9:42am here, 1:42am back home, and I need to quickly put some breakfast in me so we can head out and go to more places like The Globe Theater (very excited about that, even if it is just a rebuilt approximation). So I'll make a quick point of things from which I shall elaborate more once I'm back in Vancouver in late, late June:
-The tube is better than the skytrain: faster, and rougher. Good times.
-They had a Nock Volley Gun at the Tower of London; I was amused.
-On the first day I was using Tower Bridge as my focal landmark to figure everything out.
-According to my brother, some French high school girl was apparently crushing on me while we were on HMS Belfast.
-Big Ben is a LOT bigger than I thought.
-Fish and chips come with peas here. Quite good.
-When you order coffee, you also have to specify if you want it "white" or "black".
-Uppercase number keys go: !"£$%^&*().
--->"@" is actually where the " is. It's amusing.
Alright, I gotta head out before things start closing again. Hope you're all well, as I'm doing quite well here. Heh . . . I'm pleased to see that my presence over the podcasters hasn't changed since I've left town, and . . . I think I'll leave it at that for now.
All my love as always, everyone. Cheers!
[EDIT:] I won't be potentially living on the street until after the Contiki Tour ends at the end of May. Heh . . . if I still don't get a place to stay by then, maybe I'll sleep outside the internet cafes, eh?
And don't forget to watch Exo-Squad!
