Transportation
The @lner train brought me to @thisisedinburgh Waverley Station in under five hours. Comfy seat, clean toilets and very good customer service. I would do this route again for sure!

Next up, the @lner train from London to Edinburgh for wandering and a @carryology meetup. The teacake was tasty for something so simple! And yes, for that one follower who has been instantly triggered by my smudged iPad screen: I couldn’t find the fancy “polishing” cloth to tidy it up.

The @maevingelectricmotorcycles bike was a cool find while taking pics in @coventgardenldn. Would have loved to see it in action!

The @transportforlondon 476 bus to and from @magculture. Very cool store to visit.

“Sign, sign, everywhere a sign…. Do this, don’t do that. Can’t you read the sign?”
Taking your backpack off seems like common sense. I chuckle when I see a sign, because it means somebody “did it”. The one in toilets absolutely slay me: “Please don’t stand on the sink and pee across the room”. Sadly, that means somebody did it.

This was a first for me. I’ve seen a Lego vending machine. They sell everything else at @cvgairport, so why not Lego’s too? I bet it is fun to pick up the Lego’s on the jet when you hit some turbulence.
Every day should start with breakfast and a good message. Thankfully, my day started at a @prioritypass lounge you can actually get in without sacrificing a kidney or “reserving access” with more money. @cvgairport usually is a good place to get in and out of for trips.
The @missionworkshop Mars 2.0 and the @greenroom136 Quickdraw BYC are headed to see the Xmas lights and markets in Paris, London and Oxford.

Lastly, The @riversidemuseum had an extensive number of ship related exhibits. Glasgow was once the world leader in shipbuilding. My Uncle Carl, a World War II veteran told stories of taking the Queen Mary over to join the war effort.

The @riversidemuseum in Glasgow had some really cool cycling exhibits too. As a life long cyclist and decades long recumbent rider, it was fun to see all the bikes. It was amazing to see the @graemeobree exhibit for the Hour Record.

The @riversidemuseum in Glasgow had two of the @longwaytvofficial motorcycles from @bmwmotorrad on display. Having just attended the Long Way Home Chat in Nottingham recently, it was a special treat to see these two bikes.

London to Paris
I’m not finished posting pics from London, but wanted to update my travels. I left London yesterday on the @eurostar to Paris. Other than a small delay due to an issue with the train, it was a great experience. Very comfortable, great service and a pretty smooth ride.
Things started to get bumpy on the arrival: First up, a military type presence with heavy artillery. I imagine the woman was thinking : he is compensating for something small. The plan was to take the Metro to my hotel, but @cloudflare deemed my iOS app use to be “suspicious activity and you should contact blah blah blah to get unblocked” There was a long line at the ticket machine, so I grabbed a cab to the hotel because it was getting late.
Just a note, I have always been a fan of @cloudflare, but they are making lots of news lately that leads me to believe they also may be trying to compensate for something. Hopefully, they take a second and listen to the public criticism from the tech community.
By the time I got to the hotel I was starving. Let’s just say it was a tough night given my autoimmune based food allergies. Breakfast couldn’t come soon enough.

Public Transportation in London Plus Look at me now JFabHD
Started the day on Bus 26 out of the Shoreditch High Street stop. Came home on Bus 344 which was a short walk from the Leake Street Arches area. I am always amazed how great the public transport works in London and really across the UK.
