Shanghai Bob

Farewell, London. I’m leaving today! First stop: Freiburg, Germany, where I lived for a while when I was twenty. It’s a small, charming city, I’ll get to see a good friend from my time in Tokyo, and the weather is bound to be nicer than the rain here in London.  (Though it rained heavily last night and today looks like it’s going to be very fine.)

Andy and Mechelle got me a beautiful journal as a going-away present. The leather smell reminds me of boots and saddles, so it’s kind of an invitation to travel as well as a way to record the trip. I took this picture of it on top of Manny’s “world traveler” chest, with China in the upper right.
