so i made it here just fine... heathrow wasn't too bad, only spent 30 minutes or so in customs, then waited for simon to show up. spent the day with his 16 year old daughter Cara and her best friend Holly... we walked around Aylesbury and i had about 4 shots of expresso.... which cured my jetlag.... bought a pound of cherries at the market square.... when we got back home, we were locked out, so i showed the girls how to circumnavigate the lock with my Miami Dade Library card. then later in the evening simon and i went to this pub where we drank and he talked about his lovely girlfriend.... low ceilings in that pub.... i don't want to look tooooo much like a tourist, so i didn't take any pictures of the pub.... but i will... because i really don't have any shame.... i do not have the software for my computer here, so i'm going to find it online and download it later. i have an 8 gig memorycard in my camera, so i won't be running out of space on it anytime soon.
today, i am going to go wander around on my own... supposed to meet up with si and his coworkers at some pub a couple of miles from here, so hopefully i'll be able to find my way back over there....
i'm off to go get lost! it's the best way to explore a city.
