These entries are taken from a journal I planned on keeping throughout my stay in Edinburgh in 2000/2001. Unfortunately I didn’t keep to it as well as I should have, but the few entries I did get down on paper brought back memories. This is the second post.

Victoria Station, London

I didn’t sleep at all last night, which I guess is a good thing. I should be plenty tired to go to sleep at the “proper” hour tonight. Got here via train from Gatwick a couple of hours ago. Wandered around aimlessly and somehow ran into Buckingham Palace while the Carollton High School Band was there. Small world, I guess.

I’m back in the station now, having coffee and trying to decide how far I should venture out to find a place to eat. Shakespeare’s, the place Chuk and I ate at way back in ‘97 is right across the street. This is definitely a pricey town, save the large coffee which was only 50p. I think the Pantry’s coffee is better though. I need to find a phone quick, now that I think about it. Need to call Amy and let her know our meet-up plans. Wait… it’s only 5 AM there right now. I wonder what time they’re leaving Savannah. Might look for a CD store nearby and pick up OK Computer since Earl ate my copy.

More later.

God, I miss the snacks…
