John: Writing From Home. A New Style.

There are four benefits to writing the blog from home after the trip. Firstly, I am not subject to the whims of technology and the frustrations of erratic internet connections, whilst at the time following a busy time schedule. Secondly, because internet access is easier, I can show you an image of what something that I see reminds me of, rather than try to explain it in words. For example, in The Pompidou Centre blog. Thirdly I can use pictures to describe feelings and impressions which are sometimes better than words. for example what was "bugging" me about Berlin. Finally, and most importantly, if I have more control over what I write, I hope it will be more interesting for you to read.  

 Also please be aware of the following. Events in some of the blogs may not be in chronological order. This is because although I have only been home for a couple of weeks, I have genuinely forgotten when or in which order we did things. Or I have chosen to put together two activities we did on different days together, because they go well together and make a more interesting blog. Also please be aware that Julie will no longer be editing my ramblings before they are published, so you will be subject to clumsy sentences, bad grammar, typos, and all the other characteristics of someone who hasn't or doesn't write much, except for hundreds of shopping lists over the years. If you are still game to stay with me, then the next blog is about our visit to The Pompidou Centre in Paris.
