London trip stats


A few stats on my trip.

Time on the Tube: at least 3 hours a day
Days spend just shopping: 5
Castles visited: 3
Cathedrals visited: 4
Museums visited: 5
Visits to the British Museum: 4

A side trip to Europe
Duration: 9 days
Countries visited: Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland
Countries driven through: Belgium, Luxembourg
Most touristy-place: Rome

All in all, it was loads fun.

In other random news, I'm listening to the audiobook of Seth Grahame-Smith's "Pride & Prejudice & Zombies" and it's a hoot!

Back from London... and the last finish before I left.


I got back from London yesterday, after an amazing time! Stats after the cross stitch.

A few days before I left I finished off Mermaids of the Deep Blue. Laziness meant that I didn't take a picture. So here they are now:

Started November 24, 2008
Finished June 24, 2009
Total time 105.5 hours

The fabric is Amsterdam Blue...I think. Nope, Ice Blue Belfast. The picture would lead you to believe that it's grey. It is not. It's a light blue.

Off to London!


London, United Kingdom. Not London, Ontario.

My plane leaves in about 5 hours and I'll be in London around noon tomorrow. This is my first time in Europe (well, except for the airports that I've sat in while waiting for my connecting flight).

I'm very excited!!! Hopefully the flight will be decent.
