Day 111: Last day in London

And now it's Wednesday, December 17. The last day in London.

We leave the flats tomorrow morning at 5-something a.m., so today is the last bit of time we have in London. I got up early this morning and went outside to take some pictures and get a cup of coffee at this place I've been meaning to go to for a while, and now it's time to finish packing. It is a beautiful, sunny day out, though... absolutely amazing.

The plan is to finish packing soon so I can go outside and walk around, but we'll see how it goes.

I'm still in denial that we're actually leaving, and I'm usually pretty good with this kind of thing.

Anyway, I'll try to get another post in sometime soon with pictures, but I should probably just wait to do an overall recap when I'm home tomorrow (yikes!) so I don't take up time in my last day here.

I'll leave with a short quote from one of my favorite songs to listen to on the morning walk to school since I listened to it this morning while taking pictures, and the last line rang quite true - Elbow's "One Day Like This" (definitely listen to the song and you'll see why it's such a great morning song):

So throw those curtains wide
One day like this a year'd see me right
