21 November 2005 Things I love about England:English TV. Little old men in tweed coats riding their bikes along the street. Narrow boats on the canal. London. Lush cosmetics shop. The cathedrals. The museums. The slower pace of life. Being so unique in my neighborhood. Political flexibility. The Guardian. Being surrounded by gorgeous, varied accents. Sunday roasts. Pubs. Strong, local beers. Women in hats at weddings. The countryside. Sunsets. Little pheasants running all around the fields. Ancient houses all over the place. Preserved historical buildings. Pub quizzes. Christmas carol services in a church older than my country. Gargoyles. Flowers blooming in winter. Charity shops. Documentaries galore on TV. BBC Radio 4. Good public transportation. Closeness to Europe. The cool antique shops. Having a different perspective on US goings-on. Greener greens than I've ever seen before, green in the winter, too. Ghost walks & stories in local pubs, houses, etc. |
