I'm now in Birmingham, the "armpit of England," the second most populous city in England and definitely one of the most ethnically diverse. The city looks like how I might imagine a stereotypical English city -- rather grimy, post-industrial, gray, old pubs on every other corner. I came to England for about six days when I was in seventh grade, and all I can really remember is some famous tower in London and my pilgrimage to Legoland, also known as Heaven.
I'm too tired to post anything substantial (again), but, I just had two dinners, with a very nice family friend of a family friend who I address as "Uncle" and "Auntie." I may or may not have been cajoled into singing "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. I chose "I want you back" by the Jackson freely, however.
