England

trading between shoes that make my feet hurt in different spots... jet-lagged or insomnia?... trying to say 'cheers' without sounding too american... nodding off to sleep on busses... admiring british parks... window shopping... getting lost... eating... eating... eating...

check:
london
salisbury
windsor
stonehenge
bath

met a nice guy at the london hostel, from finland. tour of parliament pretty awesome. it's nice how they divide the houses to include the necessary rich men in one house with less political power and the other, elected house. we should do that. we should also make up stories about the greatest king ever, the fictional arthur, and then put massive paintings and carvings of him on the royal wall. maybe if we had an awesome fictional king we would hold our own leaders to higher standards.

don't worry dad, hit the british museum. i stayed for five hours in the elgin marbles room. it was that awesome. windsor castle huge. stonehenge also huge. and the druids even had nothing to do with it. who knew.

had a great night with cousin sarah: drinks, dinner, movie. 'twas quite good.

so... that's the wrap. nothing too funny/ amusing.
