This week hasn’t been all that exciting, except for the fabulous boat cruise we took to Greenwich which included a walking tour to the Greenwich Meridian! You can imagine my excitement when I realized I could have one foot on the Eastern Hemisphere, and one foot on the Western Hemisphere. I was completely ecstatic of course! It’s the little things in life that give me pleasure, and being in two places at once (get it?) has always been something I’ve wanted to do, and this makes it possible.
It was a beautiful day, and the boat ride was so much fun. It included a commentary about the various sites we passed, and once we entered Greenwich we could either take a walking tour or travel to whatever places we wanted. We took the tour and passed through various sites including the Greenwich Meridian. I was just so excited about that!
