In London
So, it's been 4 days and counting here in London... nope, not in Europe, I am in Canada. The town has a population of about 300k and seems quite nice and serene, which surprises me since there is a major university here. The University of Western Ontario. Suposed to be one of the nicer ones here in Canada.
I am shacking up at the Hilton right across from my client's office in downtown London. My room is on the 22nd floor and I think is the tallest building in town. The town is covered with trees. Plus an evening walk in the area here is quite pleasant... lots of hotties. For some reason I'd think a small town wouldn't have very many hot women... in-breeding. But the university brings some color. I went an Indian restaurant which surprisingly serves East Indian food, which is very uncommon since it is not the usual "Butter Chicken" and "Chicken Tikka Masala" routine. I shared a rezala and a couple of other things with Ian and Raez from work. Excellent, but as always, the glutton that I am, I over stuffed myself.
This is my first time away from Eve and Tricia for a whole week since she was born 5 months back, yeah today she is 5 months old. I haven't been able to sleep too well. I guess need my nagging woman and the screaming baby to complete the picture of insanity
Oh by the way, the picture isn't Eve, she is just about rolling over and starting to scoot, but not quite crawling yet. So the picture above is of a spray pad to stay cool as the temperature rises here.
Jan and his friend Raphi are visiting us after they spent 5 weeks driving across the country, starting from New York to Chicago to the southwest to the south central, more southern and to California. Yesterday they went to Napa valley, after which they spent the night at grandma's in Ukiah in northern California. Today they were supposed to visit Redwood National Park. I've been there, do that and I think I have tshirts to prove it.
Aaah tshirts... bastard Paratha. 8-) 'nuff said.
