I've decided that my favorite part of London is it's hills. Locals measure everything by hills. The place your looking for is at the top of the hill. The tube station is at the bottom of the hill. If you find yourself on this hill you've gone too far. Funny thing is, I've yet to see a single on of these supposed hills


These are the two sides of the intersection next to St Paul's cathedral. One of these two stretches is marked and named as an official hill on London maps. Can you guess which one? If I hadn't seen I on a map I wouldn't either. It is in fact he second one facing the bridge and the Thames. It makes directions quite difficult to follow when you can't even see the landmarks mentioned. And in Scotland they kept talking about their mountains. Again I say, "What mountains?" They do have some gorgeous hills, but I can't see them as mountains. Just amusing to me.
Made it to Spitalfield market today. Was rather disappointed. It was definitely no Portland show mom! Speaking of which, tell the guys hi for me and have fun.
Excited for Stonehenge tomorrow. More excited for Paris. Did I mention I was hanging out in my hostel in Edinburgh with a German gal? Very nice. Taught me a good phrase for me to know. Ich spreche kein Deutsch. I don't speak German. Oh the little things.
