On my way to the train station in Birmingham, I always pass by a rest home. On this day an elderly woman who was out for a walk with a caretaker stopped me for a little chat just to say hello. Woman: "Where are you off to on this lovely day?"
Me: "Oh I'm going to Brighton!"
Woman: "Oh Brighton by the Sea! Oh, take me with you!"
It was the sweetest thing! She also complimented my eyes. I wish I did take her along.
Claire goes to University of Sussex in Falmer, but met me in Brighton to show me around.
The Pavilion
The Seaside!
The next day in Falmer, Claire took me on a nice walk behind her campus. As Jane Austen fans how could we not enjoy a nice long walk in the English countryside, imagining Mr Darcy shall appear at any moment.
Claire lovingly calls this place the Bennet House
Made a new friend! :)
In the evening I headed for London for one last visit to Sam's. The next day I took in a matinee of King Lear at the Globe.
It was pretty incredible. The eye-gouging scene was so graphic!
On my way back across the bridge I soaked some last bits of London in...and stumbled across my friend, Anthony's, school.
How lucky: to go to school nestled between St. Paul's Cathedral and the Thames and to have The Globe just across the river. *swoon*
