LONDON
The last 3 days went off in a flurry. I guess it was a little ambitious to see London in 3-4 days, but I still have another 3 days after I come back.
On the first day, after a really late start, we went walking around the Thames river along the South Bank. It’s a really relaxed place with street performers, skateboarders, heaps of tourists and generally people who didn’t seem like they had much to do! Spent a good 4-5 hours walking around and then headed back home.
The next day, drove down to the beautiful Windsor Castle. Located right on the river Thames, it’s quite an idyllic spot. A bridge crosses from Windsor to Eton, home to the famous and expensive school for the rich and famous here in England. The weather has been beautiful - misty and cloudy in the morning but sunny during the day. So, I guess I have been lucky. And now I understand the preoccupation with the weather. You can’t but help be obssessed with it. Everything depends on the weather! What you do, where you go and how you feel :)
We took a walk around the palace grounds, the royal chambers and then around Windsor town. The hall where Camilla and Charles wed are just outside the grounds. We sat for a while and had coffee and lunch at one of the many cafes dotting the area.
Yesterday, I met up with Jag and Sunrayz and spent most of the time roaming around and getting a flavour of the real London. We must have walked everywhere - Covent Gardens (a most charming place), Leicester Square, Trafalgar Square, Oxford Street etc.

A Poem
Autumn leaves are falling as fast as the time goes by.
The coldness of the streets is the meaning of the cheerless song of life.
Tears and rain are falling down on the sad faces and seem to be the same.
The youth represents the hope.Like these autumn leaves I have nothing to hold.
The sight of their eyes is empty, as the fragrance of their dream is inexistent.
The wind is my guide as the waves can bring us anywhere.
The clouds can hide the sun but nothing will ever hide the mistakes of the past.
The whisper of their voices symbolizes the feather hurried in the air.

Like these autumn leaves I have nothing to hold.
