I’m having so much fun I can barely see straight. We have a three hour ride today and I intend to be drooling and snoring for the most of it. Catching up with my travel buddies can wait for another time.

Here are 3 pictures. Detail of […]

My luggage, however, is still partying in London. There’s a chance I won’t see it for the entire trip. Go figure. Of course I have my camera equipment (sans tripod), laptop, and a few daily necessities with me. I could, however, look a little shabby towards the end of the week. With all of the […]
