The phone didn't have a good connection, the internet went out, my husband needed me --- I decided to start at the beginning again and leave comments as I go. <br /><br />Traveling overseas is exhausting and I have never met anyone who was happy after that long flight. I cannot even imagine traveling from California. <br /><br />Those buses are wonderful for getting a person oriented around the city. I would have stayed on the bus on a rainy day, too.Kristin - The Goathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08856336718919208752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9070542752256828676.post-9683929793923393712011-07-19T10:17:37.962-07:002011-07-19T10:17:37.962-07:00It sounds wonderful so far!

I enjoyed reading about your adventures. I know it gets tiring sometimes but being in a new city makes it exciting too. When we were there, it was always raining too so we never got to sit on top of the tour bus either. We stayed at a Marriott's also but in Grosvenor and it was close to the shops downtown so we walked a lot. I would like to go back....Christinexinexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13100438341646700750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9070542752256828676.post-10998937604700055402011-07-17T19:10:12.370-07:002011-07-17T19:10:12.370-07:00I can understand why you couldn't get any slee...I can understand why you couldn't get any sleep...I would not have been any better at it... in new places...great pictures and I like them set up in a collage.

The Jet Lag hits me hard.<br />Last time we went we had to drive a little while before we got to our hotel. We checked in and were supposed to go to dinner but I was so tired I felt like I would throw up so I just had to go to bed.<br />I don't know how you did it!<br />Good job.<br /><br />And all your pictures are wonderful!CBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16911579093553356167noreply@blogger.com
