Where's Abby (+ Dylan and dogs)

 I'm out of London!  My opinion of this city didn't end great.  To get the negatives over with...  It was rainy  I was lonely  My leg was killing me (likely cause for a lot of my sour view of London)  Lines were long People weren't that friendly  My phone was STOLEN. Right after my visit to Stonehenge so all those pictures were lost.  The bus ride from London to Glasgow sucked . Not only did I have to wait like 7 hours to leave when I was really ready to leave by like 4, but the strangers in front of me felt the need to share their entire life stories at 12am on a 9 hour bus ride, the guy next to me blasted his "Call Me Maybe" and futuristic style music on his earphones, and it was soo uncomfortable with me leg.  One bad thing about traveling alone is it can be difficult to wander a city from 8am-10pm. Sometimes I just want a nap. There's only so much cafe and restaurant sitting, church exploring, museum seeing, a...

                           I a rrived in London Saturday and met up with Kelli.We went out to meet some of her friends at Urban Bar... But not before taking a slight (two hour) detour to a slightly ghetto area. But we made it to the bar and all was well. I got quite tired and was nearly ready to go home before some entertaining people reeled me in with their awesome dance moves. So the jacket was taken back off and my second wind arrived. I'm so glad it did too because it was one interesting night.         I got to witness the owner "lighting his crotch on fire," like I'd hear about, was handed an umbrella proceeded by "Raining Men" coming on the bar getting sprayed with water. Then T here was an old lady with some crazy dance moves (mostly on a table) that took me back to Janice days (the token old lady frequenting the Jax Beach bars).  'Twas  soon time to go home at around 2am ...

UK, here I come!  Heading off on my next adventure to England and Scotland tomorrow! It's been too long since the last and  I cannot wait.  Not only will I get to spend a week in these amazing countries, but I'll get to explore them with two friends! I'm staying with Kelli, the daughter of my mom's best friend, in London for four days, then taking a night bus to Glasgow and staying with David, a guy I met while he was visiting Jacksonville!  Crazy the connections you can make in life! Meet a guy visiting Florida for a week for a football tournament, then visit him in his country a year later.  It sounds like they have some fun stuff planned already too... Some special pub, restaurant, and rugby with Kelli, then castles and a Céilidh, a Scottish dance with David.  Stoked .  In other news, life's going pretty well. The job is becoming less of a favorite but other parts of life are making up for it.  A lot of that making up is du...
