pictures!

What that means is that we are now in our proper London digs, have connected our phone and can be reached on our regular (Santa Barbara) home number as well as our mobiles, and, internet gods willing, can share images of our adventure. Since the last post, the following has happened. We met our prospective bay house housemates, and took a shine to them (Saturday). We went to the London Borough Market and fell in love with it and everything in it (later on Saturday). We walked across the Millennium footbridge over the Thames and saw St. Paul's Cathedral (even later on Saturday). We saw a room for our friend Henning - a German classmate who spent the last term at UCSB - and as his proxy secured said room for him, so that now he has somewhere to live (Sunday). We hiked in the lovely Queen's Woods - formerly "Churchyard Bottom Woods", no joke, what a wise name change - in Highgate (later Sunday). We moved to Stockwell (today). Joey promised to post to the blog (someday). For your viewing pleasure, a few select images from the weekend are below. They are, in no particular order, mounds of chocolate on sale at the Borough Market (how could one not fall in love? They had me at hello), various shots of Joey and me in front of St. Paul's Cathedral, Joey contemplating what to do with our suitcases having finally gotten them into our room in Stockwell, Joey giving up on the suitcases and collapsing over them.
