London

Well, it's been colder in London than it is in Maine. Go figure. And me, I forgot a sweater, socks, umbrella, and a power converter!

I've met a couple of people who are going on the trip. They are staying in various locations around London. So far, so cool!

I went to the British Museum yesterday. Found my way there on the tube system quite easily! It is a great museum, tons of Egyptian artifacts - the ones that you see photographed all the time. And I forgot my camera battery! The best room in the museum (IMHO) was the Islamic art room. The tile work and glass was amazing!

Had some typical English fish and chips. I was NOT impressed. But, it wasn't from a pub, just the hotel restaurant.

Well, in a couple of hours, I'll be on a flight to Nairobi! Stay tuned....

I'm starting a petition.

I just want to start a petition. As much as salmon is a great food item, I don't think it should be served in the small confines of an airplane. That is all.
