This week we have been visiting customers in the greater London area. This means a lot of driving and seeing bits and pieces of the area. Tonight I thought I would share my exciting day of travel.
Our mornings have started out with a drive toward London. Unfortunately, the route is under construction and traffic is slow. I took a picture of this sign this morning. It took me awhile to figure out the sign. When I first saw “ANY VEH” I didn’t realize that it meant any vehicle. I read it as ‘any way” with a bit of an accent.
When we get off the highway into the suburbs of London, it is interesting to see the double-decker buses. Usually the single deck buses are full and the double-decker buses are empty 🙂
As we drive along I am always looking at the interesting architecture. There are a lot of brick buildings in the London area. I really liked this ornate design over the windows of this brick building. I also like the reflections in the windows.
There is a lot of older architecture and fabulous brick buildings.
You also see a lot of modern architecture like this apartment building and Tesco store. We visited a customer right close to this building. We parked in the parking garage of this building.
The parking garage was an exception. Usually we parked in Pay & Display lots near the customers. We had to estimate how long we would need to park and then purchase a ticket to display in the car window.
While at our last customer today we had plenty of time left to visit a coffee shop for a late lunch. I had a nice bacon and cheese panini.
Now for a little reading before a good night of sleep.
