Europe and the UK

In the absence of any contact or response from my contacts in the UK, I went ahead and booked my places to stay.
After returning from my continental tour...
Oxford St Youth Hostel, London:
arr: 13 Nov 07
dep: 17 Nov 07
York International Hostel, York:
arr: 17th Nov 07
dep: 22nd Nov 07
Then I'll be staying with a friend in London (Para) and catching up with
purple_cube, my cousin (Tina), and hopefully
agriope23, before heading out from London on the long flight home.
I picked York because
slm76 said that York has a variety of different angles and museums and a lot of history.
I still intend to see
beefree88 in a future trip, but the logistics of flying out to Hungary and back weren't practical for the situation this time. Next time I go through Europe, I think I'll take the really slow-and-adventurous route, flying into the East and touring my way through the countries via trains and hostels.
(Hey, that's adventurous for me!)

Meanwhile, back in Philadelphia, we're watching the Rockies having their Asses Kicked by the Red Socks, in between snatches of the game between Penn State and Ohio State.

I'm kinda disappointed that the hockey games between Boston and Philadelphia are in Boston while I'm in Philly, and in Philly when I'm in Boston. One of these years I'll get to an American football game live and an ice hockey game live. I've already done a baseball game in SF with
allisnow.
Oh, and a UK/European football (soccer) game. :D
More on Philly later. I'm still trying to scrape Disneyland together!
