I spent Friday and Saturday in "the country" this weekend. I was out visiting som new friends Nick & Penny (I was introduced to them through my Denver friends, Elizabeth & Dani); we had a fantastic time in Reading, Swindon and Malmsbury. I am simply amazed at how green things are here. The humidity does wonders to the country (and my hair!).
As for today in London, I took a walk down to the Tate Modern and spent a good few hours checking things out. I spent lots of time with the Picasso's, Monet's and Warhol's. I could easily get lost in the presence of that museum. I ended my museum tour with a walk to St. Paul's Cathedral and caught an evening service (and I didn't end up in flames). St. Paul's is gorgeous; Princess Diana and Charles' wedding must have been fantastic.
Otherwise, I had two separate groups of people asking me for directions and I steered them in the right direction. It was a sense of accomplishment after 5 days. This is a truly a great city. I am excited to start work tomorrow and meet people from the office.
Peace out for now.
