tomorrow we are off to barcelona! hooray !!! but i am really sad to leave london. this place has really grown on me and like i've said a thousand times, if i could, i'd move here in a heartbeat....hmmm...i'll find a way!
so yesterday lex was sick in bed all day so i ventured out on my own which turned out to be an awesome day. i met some cool people, the weather was gorgeous, i walked a ridiculous amount all over the city but most of all, i went to the tate gallery. the exhibits there were breathtaking...i know i'm sounded like a huge dork talking this way, but honestly if you could see or have seen it, you'd understand. there is a francis bacon exhibit there and wow!...i think i spent a good 2 hours looking through the nine rooms of his work. if you ever get a chance to go see his work, please do. absolutely amazing work.
well i'd go on about the other stuff but i just got my two minute warning on this computer...dont feel like paying anymore...OH but wait, at the tate they had this thing where people would literally "run as if their lives depended on it"...down the main hallway of the gallery. it was an exhibit by mark reed. LOVED IT! so genius!
okay i have 30 seconds left...kisses to all and ill write more in barcelona! and post pics :)

Ah! More thoughts-Montmartre and the Sacre Coeur Cathedral. Famous artist and writers colony and a stunning view of the city from the Cathedral. Cafe food-sandwiches arent great--too much bread, butter and not much filling--beef-boeuf, chicken-poulet-fish, poisson. MacDonalds beef is almost raw. French onion soup is great! Steak tartare--raw hamburger! House wine called vin ordinaire! Pate is good with a baguette. Potage-soup. Picnic on the Bois de Boulonge (sp) Laugh with the French and they will be fine with you. So wish I were there to watch you see Paris for the first time! KB
