cambridge

Storbritannien er et område, som jeg har besøgt adskillige gange. Skotland er nydt kun en gang, hvor Edinburgh dannede base for ture til bl.a. Glasgow og Loch Lomond.

Selve England kendes med base i billederne til venstre. Disse byer har jeg boet i (nogle flere gange) stortset altid med glæde. De understregede navne klikkes videre til billedserier. Jeg holder meget af Liverpool, mindre af Manchester trods fan af Man.Utd. Cambridge erindres med stor glæde fra et intensivt sommer-sprogkursus.

London er noget særligt. Jeg har boet og været i byen adskillige gange på alle årstider. Altid med stor glæde. Hvorfor egentlig?

London er beskidt, larmende, utålelig dyr, høj kriminalitet, venstrekørsel, mange ældre misligholdte bygninger, nye arkitektoniske højhus-rædsler med undtagelser, støjende pubber, realtivt små hotelværelser, kæmpe vareudbud, gamle og støvede museér, usunde fish and chips, pistol-ubevæbnede bobbies, tåge, smog, vild trafik, slidt underground-stations and lines, heftigt forlystelsesliv, multikulturelle platforme og parallelsamfund, tiggere i gadebilledet, (dejlig) usund morgenmad....og dog...

Derfor!

Great Britain - by and large a great place. Scotland has been enjoyed only time. With a splendid base in the magnificant Edinburgh I enjoyed among others Glasgow and Loch Lomond.

England - my bases have been pointed out of the picture left. Most of this destinations have been visited more than ones. The underlined pictures link to a picture-section. I do like Liverpool very much, much lesser Manchester, although I am a great fan of Man.Utd. - Cambridge represents a dear memory from an intensive summer-languagecourse.

London is something very special. I have stayed in the city several times around the seasons. Mostly with great pleasure. Why?

London is by fact a busy, dirty, noisy, expensive, snobbish, criminal, left-drive, bomb-alarms, lots of elder neglected buildings, noisy pubs with drunking people, slappy tea to unhealthy (and nice) breakfast, snobby form of acquintances, narrow hotelrooms, old and dusty museums, fish and chips, gun-unarmed bobbies, smog, fog, multietnic platforms and begging together with a worn underground. Perhaps - that is why!

The city is always worth a visit!
