I have been up for approximately 36 hours - mostly flying around, but also a lot of standing around waiting for security checkpoints, etc.

We arrived in London around 7am local time.  The first thing we did after grabbing our luggage and whatnot was head to Wimbledon!  It was awesome, and my trip is pretty much made.  As a result, I think I might try to see if it’s possible to get to Roland Garros while I’m in France. Does anyone know if that’s possible on a 1.5-day-in-France stint?  Someone please do the research and report back to me.  Anyway, Wimbledon was totally sweet.  I actually almost ended up buying a Waterford crystal tennis ball for 70 pounds.  Why?  I don’t know.  But it said Wimbledon on it!  I resisted the urge, though, because let’s be honest.  I don’t need a crystal tennis ball.

I give you one try to guess what I did next.  Yep, that’s right.  I went to Chinatown.  Haha.  I flew all the way across the pond to go to Chinatown.  The food actually sucked, but it was likely due to the place we picked rather than London altogether.

I am in Barcelona now.  We got in around 10 or 11pm and it’s now 1am.  I don’t know what all is the game plan tomorrow, because I am so happy to be blissfully following the family around without any money and just telling them “I need money to buy this now.”  Sure, it makes me feel like I’m seven again, but it’s nice not to have to think ever.

Alright.  Until the next time I find free internet.
