Monopoly
Have you ever played Monopoly? I'm sure you have. Have you ever played Monopoly in London? This time I'm not talking about the board game. Instead, I'm talking about going and visiting every one of the streets on the Monopoly board and taking photos of them. I don't know how it works with the other versions, but with the original one, all the streets are in London. So we were talking about doing it and so I decided that I had to.
Now this may not seem like such a big thing to do to someone else but let me tell you it is, especially for me. First of all, the streets are not all together, but scattered around the place. And second of all, I am not great at reading maps when I have to walk out of a train station and then translate from the map where I am. It often doesn't work. So some of these I took from the days before, but most were taken on the one day - my last day in London. And I decided that I wasn't going home until I got them all. So the last one I ended up getting at about 10pm at night. I probably started this at around 3pm. I never imagined that it would take so long!
