Well I am here in london, I don't really know what part of london I'm in, it's all kind of the same to me. Now I know what people were thinking when they ask "so your from vancouver?" and I reply "No i''m from langley"
So far the trip has been success! After the first day, where I was pritty much usless after my wohpping 3 hours of sleep on the flight, I awoke on my second day at about 430 rearrin to go. I spent pritty much the entire day just meandering around the city with no real agenda, except a missinon to find a free map of london, ( which I eventually did.) And 8 hours, one sore leg, a close call with a car, and allot of time being compleatly lost I finally had my bearrings.
Today was a bit more intresting than the first. since I had spent all of the previous day finding where everything was, I decided to go soak up some culture and went to both the london museum and the museum of britan. Both were pritty intresting but the museum of britan takes the cake for sure. Its size alone is intimidating and once i got inside i Imeadialty got lost in one of the largest collections of antiquity artifacs. I speant hours wandering through the Greek and roman sections looking at artifaces, pottery and sculpture, all the time trying drastically to remember my greek mythology. nothing was greater wondering trough picking out peices I had studied in school all the while listing to my mp3 player. I had to stop myself from grabbing people and shaking them out of pure excitement. I love the greeks. Look at their pottery, and their fresco sculpures from the parthenon. They are the first comic book writers!

good lord!
Leave it to you to head to europe and still find some way to incorporate comics into it all...you realize you could have toured the marvel studio for much less money and the same amount of glee... glad to hear your having a great time being lost. At least we don't have to worry, coming from Langley means you're lost as soon as you leave HWY 1. Later yo!
