here in england
first leg of my journey: manchester, UK
the flight… so tiring! this is how we both looked after both flights:
and then we walked all over manchester. and i mean, we walked ALL OVER manchester. just the main parts of town, but still. we went back and forth and saw the museum and the library and the urbis and a whole buncha other stuff, we hit up everything that was in the tourist guide book.
this is a cool building we saw looking for the urbis
and chris and i got to stick up a photo on the wall inside the museum. leaving our mark, y’know?
anyways, i dropped chris off at the station around 4 so that he can go on to visit elsa in germany, and now i’m all alone. i went to a play entitled “she stoops to conquer” in this cool building
but y’know, i think i was just so tired from all the traveling i kept on drifting off to sleep… my head was nodding =) hahahahaha… seriously, since monday noon, i’ve only had about 3 2-hour naps at the most! i slept 2 hours on monday night/tuesday morning, and about 2 hours on the first plane, and two hours on the second plane, and now it’s almost 4pm PST on wednesday… so that would be almost 46 hours? yeah… i’ve been awake that long… yikes!
anyways, the only other thing to report is that their damn accent that makes them sound so cool makes it incredibly hard for us to understand each other. i don’t know if i’ve talked to anyone without having to say, “sorry? could you repeat that?”
at one point we bought an ice cream bar and then asked the girl, “so what’s cool to do around here?” and she stared at us blankly, nudged her co-worker, and whispered, “you gotta help ‘em! i don’t understand what they’re saying!”
oh wow… they can’t understand me either!
maybe after i sleep a little it’ll all get better =)
Sleepy but, happy from what I can tell. What can I say, I’m jealous.
