My date with the queen is complete. Back on Canadian soil now, and waking up way to damn early. Been back in Ottawa since Wednesday now, and trying to get back into a what was normal schedule. Passing out at 9 and waking up at 6 and felling like I’ve sleep in is fun, but I’m sure it wont last.

London was fun. Saw a large chunk of the city and my feet can attest to that. Met some cool people, and made taste with a decent amount of new beer. Got at least one train ride into my system, though wasn’t over to Europe. Just means I have to go back. I enjoyed the city and took some good things from it. Ottawa feels so small now. London has a nice deep personality to it, with new and old buildings have strong contrast. Much more character and interesting. Ottawa is nice, but its missing some of what London has. Or I’ve just lived here to long. Did a little bit of shopping, but not really my thing. Though Uni Glo is my new favorite store. Only 3 in the world, Tokyo, London and NYC. At least one is on the same continent.

Took over 2300 pictures, but don’t worry you don’t have to go though them all. I sorted out 450 for you to gaze upon. There were a lot I took for myself, just because, or to get the best shot out of the situation. I think I may just be trigger happy though.

I wont go long winded on all the happening, but just assume what you will. Didn’t do anything crazy like people were advising me to. I had good tourist fun. And hey. I wanted to remember it though more than just pictures.

Though I’m sure a trip to Tokyo won’t have that same outcome. Trigger happy will help there.
