Tourist-a-Matic

Or Tourist-a-Rama, whichever you prefer. This weekend my friend from Pearson, Albert, came to visit with his brother, Jordi, and we crammed as many tourist sites into two days as possible. We saw St. Paul's, Hoxton Market and Old Street, Borough Market, the Tate Modern, Hyde Park, Buckingham Palace, Westminster, and more. Considering I hadn't even recovered from my recent tourist-a-thon in Provence, I thought I acquitted myself pretty well, but I am beat now. It's time for a week of sitting in the library reading, and doing a whole lot of nothing. It was great to see Albert, though, and realize that even though almost 6 years have gone by, you can still laugh together. The old jokes were still funny, and we made some new ones, too...
