Goodbye London

It's my last day in London. As I come to an end on this leg of my Europe trip, I've learned a few things:

1) The Tube goes everywhere, but you'll get there on their schedule. And yes mind the gap and be prepared to leap.
2) Look right, then left before crossing the street. And disregard the walk signal.
3) It's okay to speak up and wave energetically in a restaurant. Otherwise your server would not notice you.
4) Say "thank you" instead of "thanks"
5) Beer in hand makes cultural transitions more understandable.

I'm off to pack my stuff. I'll head out to a pub to have a nice leisurely lunch. The weather is slightly overcast, but probably warm enough for sitting outside. Then I'm off to catch the Eurostar train to Paris! Hopefully my next blog entry will be from Paris!
