For the past two days Kristopher has given me a crash course and overview of London. I love this city. It is so beautiful and busy and interesting... I love that I can look at a building that has been here for hundreds of years and know that it has a million stories to tell and then look across the street and see an Aston Martin.
Before this, about the farthest I have traveled is to Dominican Republic... I felt so fortunate and thankful and grateful... It was so beautiful and the people were so kind. Here I feel incredibly uncool and unfashionable and unintelligent. While the people have, so far, also been very kind, I can't help but to think about the small little shell in which I live. I am getting a little off point though... More on my new found inadequacies later!
So, tomorrow Kristopher leaves... He has left me with a crash course in the tube station, an outline of what stops I need to take to certain things I have in mind, a map, a cell phone that has no minutes on it (and he is not exactly sure where to load it) and memories of our two days together quickly exploring the city.
I wish he was staying, because I am not gonna lie, I am a little nervous. I am never more than three feet away from my Blackberry and I am never not without cash. Now, I am fine in regards to the money and potentially the phone... but just having those two major things a little bit out of my control is really throwing me off.
Oh well... I will be fine and I have a long list of things that I need to do and see!
So, wish me luck! More to come soon!

It sounds like you are having a blast. I can't wait to hear more details/see photos.
Hope you're enjoying yourself!! I bet its so nice not having your blackberry go off every two seconds.. and the people you're hanging out with will appreciate it too!! I think when you get back to the great state of Iowa you should try leaving your crackberry home more often :) Miss you!!
Oh.. and remember to practice some stranger danger when you're out exploring.. we know how nice and friendly you are but.. really.. be careful!!
Turbo, I am having a great time!! I have always, always wanted to visit New York, but this works too!!
Lil Starpril!!! I miss you too! I wish you were here with me, we would have a blast! I know I need to be "more in the moment" and enjoying my friends and being completely without my crackberry and proven to me that I can and further, being without my friends makes me think about how much I love you guys! I promise to put it down... um... more often! Love ya, miss ya!
Hahahaha, awesome. Well, you should totally check out NY, also. When you do, make sure to drop us a note so that we can link while you are here!
