My English Vacation

So im here in England almost in the 'middle' of my vacations now :((. I have been very quietly observing the culture here as much as i can from my tourist eye. Of course it is different living in another country and observing and living right through it.. er.. still i can humbly make a brief attempt at trying to understand the facade in front of me, since im here.. why not then!

It is a very beauiful country, very beautiful. There is more white-ness to see than i ever saw
(really!? who am i kidding ;) ), lush green pastures, typical english pubs, the fish and chips, riverside picnics, babies everywhere.. i swere every second woman in this country is pregnant right now! I see typical milking cows ( you know with the black and white patterns and the pink nose.. MOO to that!!)

All this along with modern London, with big maddening stores like NEXT, Clairs, John Lewis, Debenhams, BHS etc etc, Starbucks coffee, Costa Coffee.etc etc.. with London Eye and Big Ben looking right at ya!! You cannot escape those. Then my favourite SOUTH BANK. I could spend a whole day there, and another, and another, and another.. and another whole day. A perfect place for people who appreciate music and art. Of all forms. Live human statues, musicians playing on the street, tourists, dancers, concerts.. simply amazing! London by night.. you have got to be CRAZY if you missed that!

People are very polite, soft spoken and helpful. No nonscence, crass behaviour on the streets and DARE you violate a rule.. you are in for a hefty and regrettable hole in your pocket!

I have not heard a single car honking ANYWHERE. Better believe it and you had better have a very rational explanation for honking at someone!!

Every second person owns a convertible or an Audi. People in general are very well dressed.
If ' y'all ' girls here think you know fashion and are well dressed..... you better re-EValuate your self perception. um-hm! (Just like the americans isnt it!! hehe)
Without doing anything the women look fabulously dressed, no extra make-up, just a liner and gloss and thts it!! i dont know how they do it!!

Anyway.. this is just a lil glimpse of what all i saw.. some vacation time still to go.. more blogging later :)
