Piccadilly Circus and Covent Garden

by on Feb.14, 2009, under Uncategorized

Today I visited Piccadilly Circus, which is a bit like Times Square, sort of.

I also visited Covent Garden Market, which is almost exactly like Faneul Hall Market in Boston. Except all the street performers have cockney accents.

While there, I encountered some kind souls who are helping blind people.

I asked them how they do it — they told me they use spray bottles of sulfuric acid. Bless their hearts.

In 3 hours I board a train to Paris! Catch you on the other side of the Chunnel.

    Hey!

    Yesterday we noticed that Fat Tuesday happens on Feb 24th, and were wondering when you would be moving on to Nice. Nice!

    Yeah, I probably won’t do Carnival after all – mainly because it happens on Tuesday when I’m working from 3 PM to 11 PM France time. I have to reconcile working with travelling unfortunately and I just don’t see being able to truly enjoy the festival. But I might change my mind.
