London is so delightfully different from the us! Everyone seems so much more practical minded here...an attribute I hope to adapt. They like to get right down to what needs to be done without dilly dally, so things always seem to be going along much smoother. I also noticed on the tube yesterday that the girls seem much more casually made up than the americans...another thing I resolve to do for myself. Ive got to hit boots before I go. There seems to be so much more of a make up and hair coloring selection! Who knows...I could show up back in the states with pink hair;-) Im much more chipper today, having adjusted well to the time change and also figured out how to get a good cup of american style coffee from the machine. Of all the times Ive been here before, I cant beleive Ive never been to the royal opera house! I had to remedy that by getting tickets yesterday:-) Photos to come...

I just got back from a family vacation which was really rejuvenating but now im excited to be heading out to London and New York! Ive been purposely been staying home for the past month to take care of the car situation and the like so now im totally rearing to travel. Since doing away with my appartment in new york I really havent been there much so itll be so nice to return and hopefully see some old friends. The same with London but its been even longer...probably close to two years. Reconecting with family/friends/loved ones is so good for the soul! I try to do it as often as possible...
