The Scissor Sister concert in Trafalgar Square was a production unlike I had ever seen, they transformed the entire area into a glowing red arena, excitement and energy flowed through the air that night. Before watching ND get a smackdown, Jane and I walked along the Thames toward Parliament and Big Ben. We heard the clock chime and sat down in the park for an hour and drank, I enjoyed some Stella Artois, and Jane some Sapphire and Sprite. We had to get out game faces on before the football game, cause we cannot afford drinks at the bar, and we knew our friends 4000 miles back home had a head-start. The night slowly decended into darkness, and Big Ben slowly lit up. Then we checked out the start of the concert, before being embarassed at the Sports Cafe. A lot of Michigan fans were there, we left at halftime, almost earlier cause we knew the concert was raging outside only two blocks away, and ND’s defense was struggling, and offense puttering.
On Monday Jane had an interview in SOHO with some creative English types, and may take a position as an intern. They really need a video editting intern, and asked if I was interested, naturally with school beginning tommorrow, I declined.
Yesterday, starting in carbon-monoxide infused Paddington Station we took an amazing daytrip, about an hour west of London, to the city of Bath. Originally from the Saxon word ‘hut batha’ meaning ‘hot bath’, this town is built on the UK’s only naturally occuring mineral hot springs. These springs have been utilized for over 2000 years! In 40 AD, Rome built large buildings over the springs for their bath houses. The Abbey was brilliant too, complete with flying buttresses! Throughout the ages, European aristocrats would flock here, as well as the diseased ridden vagrants, both in hopes the water’s curing powers would releave their ailments.

We walked around for hours, they have spectacular gardens everywhere, even some botanical gardens higher up in the city. Bath is nestled in a valley, along a river, with rolling hills all around blanketed by trees and dotted with homes. This would be an ideal vacation home spot, honeymoon location, or retirement place. The place is so romantic, well I guess it would have to be if the architecture is all Roman inspired. There is also a bit of Georgian architecture too.
Anyway, the place was amazing, very inspiring. We checked out the art gallery, some fantastic portraits and amazing drawings & watercolors, some dating 1777 and before described Bath’s history. Then we had a picnic lunch along the river, found a gourmet chocolate shop, then checked out the Roman Bath House. Later we walked up hill, through narrow streets, finding great little boutique shops everywhere. We found some more gardens and parks and lounged in the sun. Just a perfect day to say the least.
When we got home, we stayed up late talking to our Hungarian roommates. Ironic how just that morning a news story broke about civil unrest which led to riots in the heart of Budapest. Just last week, Botee described how his prime minister was corrupt. These Hungarian roommates of ours our facinating people, Jane and I enjoy their company a lot, and we are learning tremendous things about their culture and language. We are even learning a few words! Nayjor jo! ‘Very good!’
