London Bridge is Falling… Ah Who Cares.

I don’t want to spend too much time writing about London, mostly because aside from a few great moments, it didn’t really have that great of an impact on me. I am sure that Val went into greater detail but London feels too much like the United States and since arriving, it feels like we are just in New York and not across the ocean in another country.

Perhaps it is that I am suffering from a little bit of travel fatigue or that everything is ridiculously expensive but London just doesn’t feel right to me. I have tried a couple of times to find out if the city is really expensive for those who actually live here or if it is only because our dollar is worth half of theirs but I can’t seem to get a straight answer. Some things it makes sense that they are about as expensive as they are at home but other things just aren’t.

It is probably not fair to write the city off entirely since we have been on the road for over a month and at this point I am ready to be home and sleeping in my own bed, but for now, give me Paris again any day.

Cheers!
