Living Luxury

So far so good, we've been staying with Adrian's aunt and uncle in a little town just outside of central London. The meals have been excellent, and of course free. Our first London meal on our own consisted of, believe it or not, wild boar sandwich. It was absolutely tasty. We will be heading out of London area soon and travelling north where a bit of the backpacking will begin, hostels, random people, stories will really start to pick up. We has our first real pub experience recently in a little town called Billericay. Friends of Anette's have been more than hospitable, making us excellent meals and showing us a good night on the town. Smoking in pubs is still allowed up until the 1st of July, and it is noticeable, probably second hand smoked at least three packs last night and the clothing reeks the next day! Really makes you appreciate the sweet smell of fresh air. Manchester is our next major destination before heading of to Dublin, Old Trafford will be a must see. London has definitely been an exciting experience. Learning the train systems, tube systems, and the unbelievable vastness of the city and some of it's architecture has been a memory in itself. I'm sure there will be many more to come, everyday brings something new and that's part of the adventure!
