I just returned from working in London and Oxford for a week, and I'm having post-travel depression...remind me why I live in Atlanta? (Love you honey.) I won't write much about this trip - explaining London's sites in detail isn't quite as necessary as the lengthy commentary on my other trips! Click here to see a few pictures.
I had an incredible time. It was beautiful, crisp fall weather the entire trip, a nice break from our still-summer weather here! I had a lot of down-time between meetings to walk around, sit in pubs, go to the theatre, wander through museums that I hadn't visited on previous trips and explore London's incredibly diverse neighborhoods. Best of all was the relative lack of tourists at this time of year and the feeling that I was just enjoying the city rather than trying to cram in the major sites!
As much as I love traipsing around the exotic locales of countries that haven't been developed for tourism yet, I must say that a week on London on someone else's dime was a nice treat!
Up next - off to Peru in 2 1/2 weeks, and in the meantime a weekend visit from my parents!
