... maintenance and closed and we had to suffer the 'Metro Crush' - pushed around like sardines in a can; Malani even commented that getting off one elevator the people behind had to push the others in front to alight. The DLR area where we got off at Canary Wharf was one of the coldest **** places I've been - it reminded me of the bitter cold I experienced in my 20's; washing the Police Truck on the Flight line at Laverton at 5AM; as the ...

... but we got it all and just need to pack it into our packs and make the flights. Looks like China will be easier then we first thought. It looks like we can extend our visa in Xi'an and we can also apply for our Vietnamese visa before leave which saves us the hassle of getting it in Beijing cause our Chinese isnt the best and it takes about 3days. We are not ...

... located in Maida Vale (zone 2 of central London). We are in between Hyde and Regents Park, and next to the Nottinghill Area. We are on the brown tube line. According to our landlord Duncan, we are living in the home of the former head of secret service for the U.S. embassy. We have been told by fellow Londoners that we are living in a very "Posh, Posh" area of the city. We are about a 15 min tube ...

... into all the specifics as I hash out details about each and every trip I went on this past year): 1. Europe is beautiful. America is ugly. 2. Europe eats in small proportions. America is fat. Example: My first week here I went grocery shopping. Since I was always out and about and never in the flat, I just got a few necessities: pasta, pasta sauce, some veggies, cereal and the like. So I went to the pasta ...

... flight. The airport dance went well, with only minor lines in check in and a little in security. I buy an overpriced sandwich and an apple because theres only cheap snacks for sale on the plane, so I just bite my lip and pay, but the sandwich ends up winning me over in the end (it had roasted red pepper...mmmmm). So being nice and content I board my flight to minneapolis, sitting next to some young couple from DC, who are totally ...

... in England (tulips were everywhere in the parks, too...). Lots of people were everywhere (mostly tourists). I got a couple "Canadians" to take a picture of me there. I use quote marks because based on how they were acting, I think they were Americans pretending to be Canadians. Oh well :p After that, I started up another street and found myself in the midst of Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. For 7 pounsd I was able to go through the Abbey ...

... so there is a reasonable chance that I'll end up full of drink before I retire - tho' I could do with some more sleep. Love to all at home - especially Mary Ann who has recently lost her poor little kitty who was called to God's great Whiskas bowl in the sky. RIP Chinotto. It's good to know it is still possible to get a cheap-ish pub meal in London - even if it is in a synthetic Wetherspoon's chain-pub. A pint of hand-pumped Abbey Ale and a ...

... which combined pedigreed improvisers and Dadaist vaudeville antics. If you did not get it then it was not his role to explain it to you. Although his name does not appear alongside Armstrong, Parker, Ellington, Davis or Coltrane in standard jazz histories as one of the greats, his place and influence as a musician, composer, educator, and performer within the history of 20th century American music should not be reduced to a footnote. The above-mentioned gods knew of him ...

... Amanda taken with that. We then walked around the East side of the park and saw the British equivalent of our Pentagon and continued walking to see the back of the Prime Minister's residence (been PMs residence for over 200 years). We then walked over to the Westminster Abbey and took some pics. Then to Parliament with Big Ben attached. We got our first trip on the Tube (subway) here at the Westminster ...
