UK & Europe, May 1993 London again...this time we had a bit longer to explore - two days instead of one. No visit is complete without looking at the changing of the guards. So much pomp and ceremony! Paul's highlight though was watching the sidelines: the best part for him was watching the new guards preparing for the changing of the guards and being inspected before marching off to the palace. We had pre-booked tickets for another musical, this time at the Drury Lane Theatre - Miss Saigon. Just as spectacular as Phantom of the opera, with the highlight being the ‘evacuation’ of the last Americans by helicopter – it was quite realistic, considering . In true form of the rest of our tour, we went for another cruise: this time on the Thames. Along the ... read more

I arrived to a grey drizzling London. Intially I had no idea of where I should head to but took a top deck bus and ended up in Victoria Station. Why I went there I dont really know, maybe I was guided by a hidden hand. But it seemed the right place to be, heaps of information about accomodation, tours, resturants and general London sites. Of course like most aussies I end up in a hostel in Earls Court. In an attempt to delay sleep until the London night I took a walk and ended up at Buckingham Palace. But as there was not much occurring I went back to the hostel and crashed into a deep sleep. Next morning, I felt fine and walked to Westminster Abbey via Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. Park, it ... read more

The thrill of returning home after spending a year and a half overseas was almost overwhelming. Although I was only visiting Sydney for Christmas and the New Year before catching another flight to London, it was great to catch up with family and friends even for a short time and I had so much fun. I revelled in simply being an Aussie again, nondescript and one of the crowd as opposed to standing out in a crowd which was the normal state of affairs while I was living in Japan. I went to a take away shop on the beach to be greeted with "Are you right?" Yes, there's no place like home, but my thoughts quickly turned to Europe and my upcoming flight to London early in the new year. When heading back to the ... read more
