London 4

Dec 6
Met with some JFKsers Josselyn is at UCL, Thalia and Julian L are at SOAS just done the street.

Dec 7
Today's route to work included a stroll by Covenant Garden, the Royal Opera House, the British Museum. Have seen far too many people almost be hit by cars because everyone jaywalks. Was almost hit by a branch today. Sitting on one of those fun red buses #3 taking it from Mortimer where I had Japanese near Oxford Circus down to Trafalga Square. great way to explore the city. It's so festively decorated. Piccadilly Circus.
As much as I complain about the long commute, it's a new experience for me. A lifestyle I wouldn't choose permanently but it's ok for a short time and like this morning, there are so many different ways to get from Charing X or Victoria to Tavistock place, passing so many historical sites along the way. It also means I'm outside walking for about 1-1.5 hours a day, fresh air and exercise, can't go wrong with that
