hs6127 Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Can't believe it, but it looks like they are back already. 1:20am 9 Feb 1 1

That's the cool thing about the Euro - in just a few hours you can be in a totally different country. Not quite the same here in the the USA. Unless you go from New York to Texas - then there is a bit of culture shock. 😄 1 1

On the other hand I have had visitors from England call me and say they are in New York and since they are in the neighborhood, want to stop by (and I am on the Left Coast). LOL 1 4

"We" know where they were, but indeed not 'how.' I assumed train/tram - least expensive. Isn't it interesting how people judge time and distance so differently. It takes me 45 minutes to get to my nearest grocery mart for food staples for a month, yet others think a 5 minute walk to their nearest $tarbucks is exasperating and atrocious. That's why I think our city girls would not like being in BFE, and I could not stand St. Pete for more than 5 days. 😉 #citycountry 1
rtgonzo Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 The difference between Brits, Europeans in general, and Americans? An American thinks 200 years is a long time. An Englishman thinks 200 miles is a long way. 1 3
disneykid Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 200 miles on uk roads is a long way with traffic jams the m25 round london is like a carpark 1 1
