Adventures in the UK & Finland
I know I promised an update on my adventures in the UK so here it is...I'll continue with my adventures since I left Odense, Denmark on my way to Finland.
Even though I had my choice of Stockholm or Copenhagen, I chose a flight to the UK because an old aquaintance had an empty guestroom only during the first part of my trip. Once in London, it was a little tricky to work the pay phones with my phonecard numbers, but it was more tricky to get in touch with my friend Dan.
Since I knew his neighborhood, I decided to get closer to where he lived as I continued to try his home number. This led me to the British Underground, which they call the "Tube" rather than the subway. Having just gotten off the squalid NY subways where I had my ukelele stolen, the tube was quite a contrast.
