"When you're looking for something, everything's a sign."

My trip to London with my friend Beverly was an incredible experience. I seriously could go on and on about the trip -- we had gorgeous weather. We saw beautiful places and sights (not just in London but also Cambridge, Stonehenge, Bath, and Guildford). We met wonderful people, including my Aunt Pauline & her family and my friend Katherine.

I've posted pictures here and here on Facebook. I had initially thought I was going to blog quite a bit about my trip during my trip. At least, write it all down on my iPod touch. I ended up not doing that due to time constraints and fatigue. I intentionally omitted some photos from Facebook because I knew I at least wanted to blog about this...

The title of this blog is the first lyric line from a song I've seen only on YouTube, written and performed by one of my favorite Broadway performers, Laura Benanti. Anyway, that line played in my head quite a bit when I was in England. You see, England likes its O's and circles. And I love England for it because I felt O's presence everywhere I went. :)  Here are just a few pictures I took of the signs and O's in England... there were many, many more.
