Never the Same (part two)

This is the British portion of things that are not the same in San Diego or do not exist.

 Tributes to Olympian champions via post boxes (plus their post boxes are just cooler)
 Castles are unfortunately not to ones convenience to visit anywhere in California or even the US really, at least not castles with ancient histories. Due to the fact that the US is not old enough to have ancient history.
 Ruins can not really exist, yet again due to the fact that the US is not old enough for castles to have been built AND destroyed, weathered.
NANDOS!! Though it exists in the US it does not exist in California, much to everyone's misfortune.

I will be doing a post when I get back of all the things I missed while away.

A Day At The Hamptons


It was my first day in England today and I got to spend it at Hampton Court as it is just a ten minute drive from where I am staying. We spent five hours wandering around the palace and gardens yet still did not see all of it. It's amazing that there are places so big and old yet still standing. It's like walking into history. The most amazing parts for me were the gardens and ceilings.
