I want to save this every couple of paragraphs because I have been so frustrated by losing entries, so I will just keep track of things by the name of each post.
Anyway, the walk was lovely, and I am enchanted by the English surroundings. There is a narrow bike lane between the sidewalk and the parked cars - looks strange but is very practical as it allows plenty of room for the bicycles to move safely. They highly encouragepublic transport and 'green' transportation like walking or biking, and often offer discounts on food or entry fees to reward the good guys. Most of the houses share a wall -like row houses with two or four, five, six....houses sharing side walls. They are called terraced houses, and each house can be made of completely different material or different architectural styles. They can also be very large (4 or 5 rooms per floor it looks like) or pretty run down looking. The medium to high-class houses all have waist-high brick walls or hedges between them, and the front yard is usually bricked or paved and will be used as the parking area for the resident if there is no parking on the street.
