I found this today and thought some, especially those from UK would enjoy this.

I was there not so long ago, walking along South Bank and in Trafalgar Square and it was packed!

Thanks!

It actually looks quite peaceful. Like only you and the world exist.

or it looks like some rabid flesh eating zombies are going to crash through one of the windows at any second and start ripping your bits limb from limb until there's nothing left.

just sayin...

Very cool! One of our kids is there on a visa work program for new grads. She loves it. We hope to go visit her this summer.

Funny you should mention flesh-eating zombies.

Ellen just got a copy of this book--

from her friend Raquel. (It's payback for a portrait Ellen did of Raquel as a zombie.)

So we're good, I think. 8-)

Best,

Living in a city it's not easy to hear real quiet, there's always some background noise in the distance. But very early Christmas mornings, about 5 or 6am I like to go outside, it's so quiet, nothing. Almost like the eerie stillness I remember when just before a tornado. I was very young out watching the yellow and green clouds roil and it was almost a scary still, maybe like something was about to happen and I should run, (like the feeling of Mel's zombies about to crash through) but I stayed to listen because it was so strange.
I was out early New Year's Day morning this year and it was a brisk still, too. But not like a Christmas morning quiet. ;)
