 A Wave From David Blaine... |

|
Today Lesley and I did something that we have probably done only a couple of times in ten years. (No not THAT!). No...we travelled all of ten miles...and took Katie to London! Isn't it strange that you NEVER seem to appreciate what's on your doorstep? We did the tourist thing and spent over two hours on a boat on the River Thames looking at how many apartments were being built in place of the old industrial wharves. Plus... At Katie's request we hopped over Tower Bridge to see David Blaine hanging in his perspex box. And...we even seemed to get a wave from him. There were hundreds of us (very cynical) Brits watching him as he yawned! When I asked Katie what she would say at school tomorrow about what she had done over the weekend she said "I went to see David Blaine!" (Forget about the other things we sailed past - Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Houses of Parliament, The London Eye, St.Paul's Cathedral etc!) So...what's the moral of this little family-day-out story? 1) Don't ignore what you've already got...it's always better than you ever imagined.
