A Walkabout

London

I decided to take it a bit easy today — favorite soda, comfy hotel bed, home renovation shows, old British movies, the park downstairs, and happy laziness. =)

I felt my usual iffy this morning, with the usual improvement. (It’s not a bad thing. I’m used to it.) It’s warm outside today, so I decided to go out early evening — I need to pack tonight and be on a train-to-a-plane in the morning.

I knew there would be lots of fun pictures in the immediate neighborhood, so a cappuccino and cooler temps sent me on my way by four this afternoon. =)

We’ll start with the Lloyds of London building. I took several photos, and it’s the kind of thing people either love or hate. You’d think I absolutely loathe it, but for some reason I enjoy the Lloyd’s building.

And some less futuristic pictures from around the neighborhood. I think I was probably only out about two hours.

My coffee spot — that’s my cup.

I had a nice rest on this bench with new friends. They didn’t have much to say. Although I probably won’t have much to say when I’m 200 years old either. (They’re not in the wall, they’re under the pavement.)

Yep. I’d live there.

It’s famous.

Have a good sleep!

      That’s the southwest corner of St. Paul’s Cathedral! It was a lucky shot at the exact right time!
