Friday I overslept because my iPhone ran out of battery in the night. I was awakened by the smell of toast 🙂  Because of the late start and the morning rain, I skipped a few things (Primrose Hill , Abbey Road) and headed directly to the British Library. They had some pretty cool stuff on display there, like the Gutenberg Bible, da Vinci’s journals, Shakepeare’s notes, Handel’s Messiah handwritten sheet music and The Beatles songs as they first worked them out! The British Museum is right next to the train station, so I then hopped onto the train, paid £4 for an hour of ridiculously slow Internet (!!!) and arrived in Manchester a couple of hours later. The English countryside was beautifully quaint. Met my friend Gez (who I met in Japan) and we had a night out on the town of Chorlton! Met lots of cool new people (Hi Sam!) and experienced English pubs at their best. Lots of fun!!
