I left my fun in San Francisco
On Saturday morning I went here

to see a truly wonderful Manga (and a woodblock) exhibtion at the Asia Art Museum.

before ending up at the airport

and onto London and this hotel in Islington, which is pretty disgusting. And yes, it is raining and cold. If I had it in me I'd move (I may later in the week) but that 10 hours from the West Coast to London is a killer. No sleep, no entertainment working during the flight, finished the last Harry Potter about half an hour into the flight. Now my brain has stopped working and I need to make it go to bed just as it's trying to wake up.
