Well, we're off to London today. I hope we packed everything we need. I'm looking forward to spending time with my aunt and cousin in London and with Susan and Joo in Paris and Nice. I hope we'll have some leisure time as well. Our schedule is getting pretty packed. When I travel, I like to learn about how people in different places live life: what their daily life is like, what they like to do for fun, what their priorities are. When I close my eyes, I envision myself taking the walking Beatles tour, browsing through some British magazines and books at a bookstore, sitting on a bench at Hyde Park, sipping coffee and people watching at cafes in Paris and Nice, taking in beautiful art pieces at various museums, watching little children playing with their toy sailboats at the Octagon Pool at le jardin du Luxembourg, and watching a movie at the cinematique. What a dream...
