Otherwise? The office in London sits on the Thames, and our conference room faced the river (above) and a bridge near Richmond going over it. It was above freezing with a bit of rain. Everyone else thought it was cold (It was ~43 F) but me? Coming from 12 F Berlin – well, it was quite Balmy. I immediately stripped down to the t-shirt turtleneck and enjoyed the warmth and the sun for the morning…. When lunch came, I took a few snapshots of the River and the office (game room chairs below), and wished I could have stayed longer.
When I left, I had an interesting discussion with the taxi driver on the way back to the airport who had asked about the day. Essentially I mentioned it was too short of a trip, but I suppose “Life is what you make of it” which turned into a discussion of how you can accomplish almost anything if you just have the drive and determination and know where to look to make opportunites happen. He dropped me off at the airport – and when I opened the door to go inside the terminal — this is the sign that greeted me. Karma telling me something? I don’t know – but I just thought it was cool how fate / karma really reinforced the conversation.
