I woke up and it was a beautiful sunny day which is not usually the case in London and was looking through the different brochures in the lobby and found one of the London Zoo. Thought it would be brilliant on a day like this so I hopped on the bus and headed over to Regents Park (google maps it) which is where the Zoo is located. So I'm on this double decker bus and find an open spot by this woman probably in her 20s. And I'm given a unique window of time. I have no idea who she is, but I have a couple choices, I can sit here and not say anything (lamesauce) or I can get to know her and potentially start a friendship. Of course I introduce myself and we start talking and I learn she's from Poland but moved to London and has been working as a resataraunt manager for about six years. We ended up having a great chat for about 15 minutes, swapped contact info, and she also helped me figure out what stop to get off at. See, there's so many moments like this in everyone's life, and it's really all about seizing the moment.
I had to get off and hop on another bus and met some people that were from Tasmania, Austrailia! Say whaaat! I've never even heard of this place. It's an island just south of the south eastern tip of Austrailia, and looks unbelivable from the pictures. I'll definitely be going there eventually. Anyways, I found the stop that was right by the Zoo and they had a map of the entire Regents Park area. I talked to some more locals and they said if I walk up to the top of this park it provides a great view of London. WOW.
From the Zoo I made my way over to the nearby town of Camden, and
ordered some pizza from a classy restaurant. A four cheese with
carmelized onions, and a classic tomato, basil, and mozzarella. It blew
any american pizza completely out of the water. I mean it's like
comparing the New York Yankees to grade school tee ball (whoever knows
what that's from is a boss).
The rest of the day was spent meeting more people, randomly stumbling into a Whole Foods, and eating more good food.
I wish I could post more pictures and videos!! But the computer they have at the farm where I'm at right now takes takes about 20 min to upload one picture, so it probably won't be until July sometime that I can post more goodies (that's if the next farm even has internet or a working computer). O well.

After that I made my way over to the Zoo for some time to get lost with my camera and my mind.
