Abbey Road

As the days in London end in a week, everyone is focused on making sure to see/do what is most important. As an aging hipster, I went to a place in London where I've never been before, the famous Abbey Road.

Here I managed to ask (drag?) the guys to walk with me at the famous crossing on the cover of the Beatles' Abbey Road album. The street is actually quite busy with traffic, so our photographer Meghan took the picture from an island protected from traffic in the street. In the photo, Max plays John, Drew is Ringo, I'm Paul, and Jacob is George. I was heckled by two British blokes who yelled at me to take my shoes off (Paul is shoeless in the photo). Although we strove for authenticity, it was very chilly and I draw the line at cold feet! :)

The Abbey Road Studios still exist as a working music studio, but are not open to the public. Outside, graffiti is written all over the walls. Here's a drawing of John, with a Che connection.
