Day three

Waking up 5:30 sharp, again.
This is my third day. Trying to do sun salutation/yoga warm up in the room but the carpet was hard to stay on. After I have kicked the table a couple times and danced my way to standing asana; I made a concluding jump to Savasana.

The hectic day two made me confess to Mark about feeling tired of this touring biz. He said

"I am most surprised, you out of all these people, came here, without any plans with you! What you want to do and see..."

"Ah..I...but I am here to see old friends, really. This coming to see London thing is making me feel compelled to see the sights people recommend me. And frankly, I felt dull and those places and I don't connect whatsoever"said I.

Then followed a long conversation about seeing London in a different light, see beyond the sights talk. He is right. London has much more to offer other than monuments and shops. It's the most proper but also wacky place. I am right. There are just that much attention I have so I need to chose wisely without being greedy.

It was another sunny day. Blessed. Came out from St. Pancras tube station. Bright dome and airy. Strolled from there to Marylebone. Later on, met up with a friend from Mysore. We chatted and walked aimlessly in Regent Park where the green green gress is decorated with lovers. Then later on, invited to a her brother's flat for dinner. Hearty meal, sunshine, great laugh. Can't think of anything better than this.
